Chicken A la Pobre

Ingredients
2-3 lbs chicken thighs (or whichever parts you like!)
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon kecap manis (sweet soy sauce)
Freshly cracked black pepper
4-5 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed slightly
2-3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 head garlic, cloves peeled and finely chopped


Directions

1. Mix the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and kecap manis in a bowl until thoroughly combined.
2. Arrange the chicken thighs in one layer in a baking dish. Pour the sauce mixture over. Top with freshly cracked black pepper. Turn the chicken pieces in the sauce until thoroughly coated. Tuck the smashed garlic cloves around the chicken. Leave this to marinate for about 15-20 minutes.
3. After 15-20 minutes, turn the chicken one last time in the marinade and leave skin side up. Place in a pre-heated 375F oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until cooked through (test by inserting a knife in the meatiest part to the bone and see if any red juice seeps out), basting 2-3 times throughout.
4. While the chicken is baking, heat a small pan over medium high heat. When the pan is hot add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the chopped garlic and fry, stirring, until the garlic is golden and toasted. Drain the garlic and set aside.
5. When the chicken is done, top with the fried garlic and serve.
