Keto Orange-Five-Spice Roasted Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

• 3 pounds (1.4 kg) chicken thighs
• 1/4 cup (60 ml) soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons (30 ml) canola or peanut oil
• 1 tablespoon (15 ml) lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon (15 ml) white wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon (1.5 g) Splenda
• 2 tablespoons (40 g) low-sugar orange marmalade
• 2 teaspoons five-spice powder

Method

1. Place the chicken in a big resealable plastic bag
2. Mix together everything else
3. Reserve some of the marinade for basting and pour the rest into the bag
4. Seal the bag, pressing out the air as you go
5. Turn the bag to coat the chicken and throw it in the fridge
6. Let it sit for at least a couple of hours, and longer is fine
7. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C or gas mark 5)
8. Take the chicken out of the fridge, pour off the marinade, and arrange the chicken in a baking pan
9. Roast your chicken for 1 hour and baste 2 or 3 times with the reserved marinade, making sure to use a clean utensil each time you baste to avoid cross contamination
