Wigan chicken is named after the town it was first created in. It is really quick to prepare and cook so it is a great simple meal if you are ever in a rush. It is a great treat to creating sticky chicken without a long marinade process. It only takes 15 mins to cook and is a speedy mid-week dish that is also perfect for cooking on the BBQ in the summer months too. Serve with mixed salad leaves and enjoy.
