Effectively, That Was Surprising.
Should you described this meal to me, I’d elevate my eyebrows at you. Hen on a sheet pan, with just a few fundamental sauce parts poured proper excessive? Like, actually?
However each time I’ve made this apricot hen, each Bjork and I and our buddies have actually mentioned outloud – Wow. Why is that this so good? It’s humble, it’s low-key, nevertheless it has completely unimaginable taste.
Sesame oil, soy sauce, with a little bit of sweetness (our buddy apricot jam! 😍) are a wonderful taste base – however the factor that deserves a lot of the taste credit score right here is that tangle of charred scallions. They provide a pleasant oniony taste, but additionally a roasty depth feels such as you spent just a few hours on this as an alternative of simply quarter-hour.
The hen stays tender and juicy due to a brief bake time, the scallions are enjoyable and fairly, and should you can scrape up any browned bits or juices from the pan to spoon over your rice bowl, you’re in for a deal with. It’s so good.
