Ingredients
  

  • 6 chicken leg quarters
  • 3 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup The SPicy Olive's Golden Pineapple white balsamic
  • 1/2 tsp sriracha hot sauce
  • 1 tsp cornstarch for thickening
  • 2 Tbsp The Spicy Olive's Garlic Olive Oil or our Black Garlic and Ginger olive oil for more Asian Flavor

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350degrees F.
