SWEET AND SPICY DRUMETTES

Categories     appetizer

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup honey
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup chopped pecans
2 tablespoons ground ancho chile* (or chipotle powder)
2 teaspoons garlic powder
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds chicken drumettes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a small saucepan, add the butter and melt over medium-low heat. Stir in the honey, and cook until the mixture bubbles, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, and stir in the vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, pecans, ground ancho and garlic powder. Season the marinade, to taste, with salt and pepper.
  • ** Arrange the drumettes on a baking sheet, and brush each with the marinade. Bake until the chicken is cooked through, about 25 minutes. Baste once, halfway through baking time. Transfer to a serving platter and serve hot.
  • *Cook's Note: The ancho chile is a dried poblano chile. It is also sold as "pasilla" in the US. It is a deep red color, and the flavor ranges from mild to pungent. The rich, slightly fruit flavored ancho is the sweetest of the dried chiles. Anchos are often sold whole and can be stemmed, seeded then ground at home in a coffee or spice grinder. They can also be found at most supermarkets, Latin specialty markets or online.
  • **Cook's Note: Cover your baking sheet with tin foil for easy clean up and to prevent marinade from burning in the oven.

Categories     appetizer

Time 3h52m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup pineapple juice
1/3 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup sweet Marsala wine
1/4 packed cup light brown sugar
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
3 pounds chicken drumettes
Vegetable oil cooking spray
Kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground arrowroot powder or 1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the pineapple juice, soy sauce, Marsala wine, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, chili powder, and red pepper flakes until the sugar is dissolved. Put the chicken drumettes in a 1-gallon size, resealable plastic bag. Add the pineapple liquid to the chicken and seal removing as much air as possible from the bag. Marinate the chicken for 3 hours in the refrigerator.
  • Put an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray it liberally with vegetable cooking spray.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade and arrange in a single layer on the prepared pan. Season the chicken with salt, to taste, and bake until the skin is caramelized and very dark in spots, about 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, put the marinade into a small saucepan. Whisk in the arrowroot or cornstarch, if using, and bring to a boil over medium heat (in order to kill bacteria). Reduce the heat to a low boil and cook until thick, about 5 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes.
  • Using a pastry brush, brush some of the cooked marinade over the chicken or pour it into a small bowl and serve on the side. Arrange the chicken on a platter, sprinkle with chopped cilantro and serve.

Tips:

  • To make the perfect sweet and sour sauce, use a combination of ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, and soy sauce. You can adjust the amounts of each ingredient to taste.
  • If you don't have chicken drumettes, you can use other chicken pieces, such as wings, thighs, or breasts. Just adjust the cooking time accordingly.
  • To make the drumettes extra crispy, double-coat them in the flour mixture before frying.
  • Be sure to fry the drumettes in hot oil so that they cook evenly. If the oil is not hot enough, the drumettes will absorb too much oil and become greasy.
  • Serve the drumettes hot with the sweet and sour sauce. You can also garnish them with green onions, sesame seeds, or chopped peanuts.

Conclusion:

Sweet and sour drumettes are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you are looking for a new recipe to try, give these sweet and sour drumettes a try. You won't be disappointed!
