Ginger and Lemon Chicken

I didn't know if I should have cooked these whole chicken legs Indian or random way. Of course, I went the random way. All I wanted was a nicely charred chicken with a sweet and sour sauce.

Ingredients for marinade:
Whole chicken legs - 2
Ginger paste - 2 tsp
Garlic paste - 1 tsp
Lemon juice - 2 tbsp
Brown sugar - 1 tsp
Salt

Marinate chicken in above ingredients for a few hours or even better, overnight.

Other ingredients:
Sesame oil - 2 tbsp

Method:
1. Heat the sesame oil and place the chicken legs for them to get a nice char.
2. Flip them over after 7 - 8 mins and cook for another 7 - 8 mins or till done.
3. Remove and place over paper towels.

Ingredients for sauce:
Soy sauce - 1 tsp
Fish sauce - 2 tsp
Green chilli paste - 1 tbsp
Leftover chicken marinade
Chicken bouillon cube - 1 (optional)
Basil leaves - a few

Method:
1. After removing the cooked chicken, in the same pan, tip in the leftover marinade with half a cup of water and let it come to a boil.
2. Add the bouillon cube, fish sauce and green chilli sauce along with the basil.
3. Simmer for 3 - 4 mins and take off heat.

Serve the chicken and the sauce with a side of vegetables or plain cooked rice like the way I did.
