  • In a blender, add the ingredients for the spice paste and blend until smooth.

  • Preheat the oven to 425 F.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade.
  • Spoon the marinade onto a greased (or aluminum lined) baking sheet.
  • Lay the chicken on top of the sauce (make sure the chicken covers the sauce and the sauce isn't exposed or it'll burn) and spread the remaining marinade on the chicken.
  • Roast for 35-45 minutes or until internal temp of the thickest part of chicken is at least 175 F.
  • Let chicken rest for 5 minutes.
  • Brush the chicken with some of the oil.
