Syrian chicken with honey, lemon and ginger
This dish has had so many incarnations - it started out as a Karen Martini recipe for slow-cooked chicken pieces, then morphed through a more tagine-y diced chicken version, then one using brined halves... What hasn't changed is the deliciously lip-smacking, sweet and sour sauce - a gently spiced tomato and chicken stock base with punches of flavour from julienned ginger, lemon, honey and currants. So good. This time, we're using easy-to-cook, tender chicken supremes (bone-in), smothered in a lemon and herb chermoula paste, surrounded by the sauce which will permeate the chicken as it roasts. I think we've nailed it, folks.
