• Meanwhile, pit the cherries and set aside.
• To cook chicken: about 30 min before, take it out of the fridge so chicken can come to room temperature. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place chicken thighs (or breasts) skin side up in a shallow roasting dish or cast iron skillet. Nestle the rosemary springs in between the chicken pieces of top with the pitted cherries, moving them around so they fall in between the chicken pieces leaving as much as the skin exposes as possible. The pour the marinade over the chicken. The marinade should generously cover the bottom of the pan.
• Slide the pan into the oven and rotate every 10-12 minutes.
• Cooking times; for breasts: cook 20 minutes; for thighs: cook 45minutes. If using both remove the breasts while the dark meat continues cooking.
• When the dark meat is tender at the bone and cooked through, return breasts to the pan and increase oven to 450 F. Let the sauce reduce and the chicken skin get dark and crispy, about 12 minutes.

KOREAN FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Whisk half of the salt, pepper and garlic powder together with the Chinese rice wine to make the marinade. Add the chicken and mix well with your hands ensuring the chicken pieces are evenly coated with the marinade.
• Allow to marinate while you prepare the rest of the dish or overnight. The longer the chicken rests in the marinade the better.
• When ready to fry, heat a large wok about one third full with rapeseed (canola) or peanut oil and bring to 175c/350f over medium high heat. If you don't have a thermometer, you can check that the oil is hot enough by placing a chopstick or wooden skewer in the oil. If bubbles form around the chopstick instantly, your oil is hot enough.
• Meanwhile, pour the flour onto a plate and add the remaining salt, pepper and garlic powder. Then dust each piece of chicken with the flour mixture.
• Be sure to shake off any excess flour. Cooking in small batches, place a fewpieces of the chicken in the hot oil and fry for about 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer each batch of fried chicken to a rack to soak up any excess oil. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
• With all the chicken fried, it's time to make the sauce. Discard or strain the cooking oil into a container for future frying and wipe the wok clean. Stir in the sauce ingredients. It is easiest mix the sauce ingredients in a mixing bowl beforehand but these can be added directly to the wok if it's more convenient for you.
• Bring the sauce to a simmer and then add the fried chicken. I usually add the chicken to the sauce in batches too as it is easier to ensure that it is all equally coated. Ensure that they chicken is heated through and then add the toasted sesame seeds and chopped spring onions(scallions) to serve.
