Chicken Maryland

March 22, 2017 by Maureen 38 Comments

Chicken Maryland in a honey soy marinade.

Sometimes I’m not a very good Australian. Yes, it’s a shocker but it’s true. I went out to lunch last Sunday and ordered baked stuffed chicken and it was fantastic. As I was taking a bite, one of the servers came by and said, “That chicken maryland is my favourite!” My chicken was the breast and the little thigh bone.

Being American by birth and most of my adult life, I had no idea what a chicken maryland was. I came home and went to the supermarket website and ordered a chicken maryland. Well, what I ate on Sunday is not that.

Baked chicken maryland with a soy, ginger and honey sauce.

A chicken maryland is the thigh and leg. There’s no way to stuff a chicken maryland, folks, so I went to the pantry and made a marinade of soy sauce, fresh ginger, honey and sesame seeds. I put the seeds right in the sauce and then plopped the chicken in and massaged it really good and put it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours.

After two hours, I preheated the oven to 350F/180C and placed a piece of baking paper on a baking sheet and placed the chicken on top. I drizzled just a bit of extra sauce on top and into the oven. I set the timer for 25 minutes and turned the legs over and sauced them again and set the timer for 18 minutes. I turned them right side up and put the remaining sauce on and set the timer for 7 minutes. When the timers was done, so was my chicken.

This chicken dinner is so easy an 8 year old could make it and so good, you could enjoy it in a restaurant.
