Well, at least that's what my daughter said when she ate it.
I took some beautiful chicken thighs, breast would work as well.
First, I browned them in olive oil to seal in all the wonderful spices on the chicken.
I took the candied ginger and tamarind and pulverized it in my Vitamix.
You could also just chop it really fine if you don't have a powerful blender.
After 50 minutes, removed the foil, basted the chicken in the tasty glaze and broiled the chicken for about 5 more minutes to crisp up the skin.
This is what we created, the glaze is beyond delicious!
It's sweet, spicy, tangy, and drinkable, yes, it's that good!
Enjoy!
