Servings: persons

8 bone in, skin on, chicken thighs and drumsticks
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons water
pepper
juice of 2 limes
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons curry powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 cloves minced garlic

1
Stir the kosher salt into 4 cups of water until dissolved. Pour over the chicken pieces in a plastic container with a lid and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
2
Pat chicken dry. Discard brine. Preheat oven to 400.
3
Mix together oil, water, spices and minced garlic. Paint chicken with flavoring paste. Place on rimmed baking sheet covered with foil or on a rack (really, the rack is better but I don't have one). Bake with skin side up for about 40 minutes, until juices in the thigh run clear. If you have extra spice mixture you can baste the chicken, but leave at least 30 minutes for the skin to crisp. If necessary, turn up the heat to 450 for 5 or 10 minutes to be sure that the skin crisps..
4
Enjoy with a cold beer!
