In a small bowl, mix the gluten-free soy sauce, honey, sesame oil and garlic.
Bowl
💡Honey balances the saltiness of the soy and caramelizes over heat: on the grill it gives a browned crust, and in a pan a glossy sauce.
To assemble
2
Stir the ginger into the marinade. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and coat it well with the marinade.
3
Marinate the chicken in the mixture 1 hour, or up to a few hours in the fridge.
4
Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
5
Arrange the chicken in the pan in a single layer, with space between the pieces.

6
Bake uncovered 35 minutes, until the skin is browned and blistered in spots and the juices run clear. Halfway through, turn the pieces.

💡In a single layer with space around each piece, the hot air surrounds it and the skin browns and crisps; crowded pieces steam in their own juices.
💡Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.
7
Arrange the chicken on the bed of arugula.
8
Serve hot.
