Blackcurrant and Soy Glazed Chicken

Ingredients

  • 500g chicken thigh fillet, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 4 tbsp Bickford’s Blackcurrant Fruit Juice Syrup
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • 1 tsp ginger, finely grated or microplaned

Method

  1. Combine the fruit juice syrup, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger in a small bowl. Stir well to mix. Reserve half for basting or serving, ensuring it doesn’t contact raw chicken.
  2. Toss chicken cubes in the remaining marinade, cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours).
  3. Grill, pan-fry, or skewer and cook over medium-high heat for 10–12 minutes, turning until golden and fully cooked.
  4. Heat the reserved marinade in a saucepan, simmering until slightly thickened.
  5. Brush or drizzle the glaze over the cooked chicken and serve.

Serving Suggestions

  • This versatile recipe works with any cut of chicken—try it with breast fillet, drumsticks, or wings.
  • This versatile glaze also pairs well with pork or tofu for a fruity and umami-rich dish.
