Honey Pan-Grilled Chicken

First of all, I won't suggest this recipe, unless you have quite a bit of time to make it. Pan-grilled stuff really takes a lot of time (based on my experience), unlike deep fry or stir fry.

However, this recipe got an ENCORE request from my hubby! *Proud*

It's not that complicated actually, you just need to spend a little more time to cook it. I learnts it from Ingrid, but I kind of modified it a little bit =P

What you need is:
1. Oyster sauce
2. Salt
3. Sugar
4. Soy sauce (both light and dark soy sauce)
5. chopped garlic
6. honey rock sugar (Another option is raw honey)
7. Chicken (with bones)
8. Olive oil
9. Butter

How to prepare it:
1. Marinate the chicken with oyster sauce, both soy sauces, a little bit of sugar, and chopped garlic. I put quite a bit of garlic, because I love the smell. The amount of chopped garlic is totally up to you, depends on your taste.
2. Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes. I love marinating the meat overnight, because the taste will be much more wonderful.
3. If you use honey rock sugar, dissolve it on a pot with water. Keep the flame small, when dissolving it. Once it's dissolved, don't off the flame, as you need to keep it hot. Otherwise, the rock sugar will be thickened again.

To grill the chicken:
1. Heat olive oil and butter together on the pan. Mix them together.
2. Once the oil is hot and the butter is dissolved, put the marinated chicken and grill it.
3. When the chicken is almost done (about 75-85% done), brush the chicken with the honey. I was too lazy to brush each and every chicken, thus, I pour the honey on the chicken directly, and turn the chicken upside down frequently, until it's done.

Enjoy!
