• portions: 4 servings
• temps actif: 10 minutes
• temps total: 1 hour 50 minutes

Ingrédients

4 chicken quarters

1 ½ teaspoons salt (divided)

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon chili powder

1 tablespoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1 teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon turmeric

½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

¼-⅓ cup Calabrian chili paste

¼ cup honey

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°.

In a baking sheet or a roasting pan, salt and pepper both sides of the chicken (about 1 teaspoon salt, if not more).

In a small bowl, mix all the spices with the rest of the salt (about 1/2 teaspoon). Sprinkle the seasoning mix on both sides of the chicken and rub into the chicken and even under the skin.

Spoon a little bit of chili paste on each piece of chicken and rub the paste into the chicken, again on both sides.

Place in oven, uncovered, for about 1 1/2 hours. You can also bake this at 400° for 45-55 minutes. Chicken is done when the internal temperature reaches between 170-180° degrees and the juices run clear.

Remove from oven and baste the chicken with the drippings at the bottom using a small spoon. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes.

Drizzle the chicken with honey and serve with limes, cucumbers or even sliced chili peppers if you want more heat.
