Remove chicken pieces from the marinade, reserving marinade, and place on top of the rice. The chicken will be partially submerged in the liquid.
Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
Remove foil and generously baste the chicken with the remaining marinade.
Spray chicken with oil then bake for a further 30 minutes until chicken is caramelized, the liquid is absorbed and rice is fluffy. If you want more caramelization on the chicken, flick the broiler on for a few minutes.
Set aside for 10 minutes before fluffing rice then serving, garnished with scallions if using.
