BALSAMIC CHICKEN DRUMETTES



Balsamic Chicken Drumettes image

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     appetizer

Time 2h45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup soy sauce
5 sprigs of rosemary
5 garlic cloves, halved
10 to 12 chicken drumsticks
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Combine the balsamic, honey, brown sugar, soy sauce, rosemary sprigs, and garlic cloves, in a large, re-sealable plastic bag. Shake and squeeze the contents of the bag to dissolve the honey and the brown sugar. Add the chicken drumsticks to the bag and seal with as little air as possible in the bag. Place in the refrigerator and marinate for 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Place the chicken drumsticks on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake until the skin is caramelized and very dark in spots, about 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the marinade in a small saucepan. Bring the marinade to a boil (in order to kill bacteria). Reduce the heat to simmer and cook over low heat until thick, about 15 minutes. Reserve.
  • Use a pastry brush to brush some of the cooked marinade on the cooked chicken. Place the chicken on a serving platter. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and the chopped parsley.
  • Cook's note: I like the rosemary and garlic flavors in the background. Brushing the cooked drumettes with the reduced marinade helps the flavors along. Also, re-moistening helps the parsley and the seeds to adhere.

FIVE-SPICE ROAST CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS



Five-Spice Roast Chicken Drumsticks image

In Hong Kong they love and are famed for their skill at rotisserie-style cooking, where whole ducks, chickens and pigs, with their entrails, are roasted to a golden or soy color. Many eateries display a range of cooked food in their window fronts to entice diners. Inspired by this style of cooking, my simple five-spice roasted drumsticks make a simple dinner.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cloves garlic, crushed and chopped
2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 tablespoon groundnut oil (peanut)
1 tablespoon Shaohsing rice wine or dry sherry
2 teaspoons five-spice powder
2 1/4 pounds skin-on chicken drumsticks

Steps:

  • In a bowl, combine the garlic, ginger, honey, soy sauce, groundnut oil, rice wine, and five-spice powder. Add the drumsticks, and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Then, let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for as long as possible. Overnight is ideal, but 10 minutes is fine if you do not have enough time. When ready to cook, preheat an oven to 350 degrees F. Arrange the chicken drumsticks on a roasting pan, and roast for 30 minutes, or until their skins are golden.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken drummettes: Look for drummettes that are plump and have a good amount of meat on them. Avoid any that are bruised or have any signs of spoilage.
  • Marinate the chicken drummettes: Marinating the chicken drummettes in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize them and add flavor. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, garlic, paprika, and salt, or you can get creative and try a more complex marinade.
  • Cook the chicken drummettes at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy outer layer and a juicy interior. You can roast the chicken drummettes in the oven, grill them, or even fry them.
  • Don't overcrowd the chicken drummettes: When cooking the chicken drummettes, make sure to not overcrowd the pan or baking sheet. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken drummettes: The chicken drummettes are done cooking when they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Conclusion:

Roasted chicken drummettes are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a party or a weeknight meal. With a little planning and preparation, you can create a delicious and flavorful dish that will be sure to impress your guests.
