Cooking Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Remove chicken from marinade and place on baking dish. Add some of the marinade to the dish, discarding the remainder.
In a large bowl, add all of the cut vegetables, oil and sea salt and black pepper. Mix thoroughly and place on a baking sheet.
Place both pans in the oven and roast for 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes, remove the chicken from the oven to add the glaze. Brush glaze on the chicken pieces using a pastry brush. Repeat this process again in 7-10 minutes, adding a second coating of glaze and increase the oven to the broil setting. Remove the vegetables at this time.
As you begin to assemble the dish, keep an eye on the chicken to ensure it does not burn. Remove the chicken from the oven
Remove the chicken from the oven when finished and/or the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
