PARBOILED CURRY MARINATED CHICKEN…ROASTED

PARBOILED CURRY MARINATED CHICKEN…ROASTED
(Curry Marinated Chicken-Boiled-Roasted)
Visitors coming was asked by my daughter to prep a quick and simple
chicken course to complement “pot luck” items brought by couples.
CLQ (chicken leg quarter) came to mind quite swiftly.
Dashed to nearby cold storage and got hold of raw mats to use.
Behold.
