Korean Chicken Drumsticks


Marinating these drumsticks at least a couple of hours before cooking is key to their rich flavour.


Ingredients:

  • 8 chicken drumsticks, bone-in, skin on
  • 2 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp ginger, grated
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp hot sauce

Directions:

  1. Combine soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, brown sugar and hot sauce in a small bowl.
  2. Using a sharp knife, cut a slit on either side of each chicken drumstick.
  3. In a large bowl, combine 1/2 the sauce with the chicken. Reserve other 1/2 of the sauce for later.
  4. Cover with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator for 2 hours to overnight. Occasionally stir to coat the chicken.
  5. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with tin foil (sauce that falls on the sheet will burn so this will prevent the pan from being destroyed).
  6. Place chicken on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down. Cook for 20 minutes.
  7. Turn the drumsticks over and spoon remaining sauce over. Bake for another 25 minutes.
