| 1. Starting with the marinade. | 2. Stir together in a small bowl 1/2 cup orange juice, olive oil, ginger, garlic, paprika, cumin, coriander, crushed red pepper, and salt. Mix until well combined. | 3. Place chicken pieces, including the drum sticks in a releasable zip-lock bag and pour the marinade over the chicken pieces. Seal bag and turn to coat all pieces. Marinate the chicken pieces in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, but this recipe works best to allow up to 24 hours for marinate to penetrate. Be sure to turn the bag occasionally as it sits. | 4. Preheat Oven to 325 (F) degrees. | 5. Assemble the baking dish by placing a metal grill rack in the middle of a shallow baking dish, this elevates the chicken and allows the drippings to fall to the bottom of the pan.
