    Hi,

    I have tried your recipe named Sticky Orange and Chili Baked Chicken with Bean Mash a couple of times and have had the same results which is not anything like the picture suggests. My version seems to have too much liquid. The recipe states to baste the chicken every five minutes for the first 20 minutes however my chicken is already covered by the liquid so basting seems superfluous as chicken is already submerged. By the end of the roast time there is now further liquid in the form of the chicken fat which is now added to the pan juices. Nothing crispy or sticky in my version.
