Thai 7 Spices Baked Chicken

Have anyone of you ever heard of Thai 7 Spices?  I did spotted the recipe somewhere before but have forgotten where about. And then lucky me, Ann @ PigPig's Corner sent me a bottle of it with a total SURPRISE enclosed together a few other wonderful ingredients before she shifted over to Singapore. Ann, thank you very much. I can finally find out how it is actually taste like. OK now back to the spices! The ingredients used in this particular spices included cumin powder, dried garlic, red chili powder, green pepper powder, onion powder, star anise powder, cayenne pepper, cloves powder and sugar, salt & pepper to taste. Actually, I was quite curious why it calls Thai 7 spices? Because I don't see any kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass nor ginger flower is used. But one thing is, it does taste really really good. 

So, here's what I did.

Ingredients :

4 pcs  chicken thigh

4 large potatoes, sliced

2 tbsp  Thai 7 spices

some sesame oil

salt & pepper to taste

*1 tspn   mixed herbs (for topping the sliced potatoes)

Method :

(1) marinade chicken meat with salt & pepper.

(2) then rub Thai spices to all the chicken meat, keep aside for 30mins.

(3) place all the meat and all the sliced potatoes to baking tray, then sprinkle on salt & mixed herbs for extra flavouring.

(4) finally, bake at preheated oven 195'C for about 45-60mins or till brown.

It tastes more like a Western & Asian fusion flavouring. And it has a nice touch of spiciness that I love about. If anyone of you are interested in trying your own, you can just combine all the ingredients that I've mentioned as the above and give it ago (well, it just a suggestion.lol! hehe....) or you may just order a bottle from the site as given. Have fun!
