Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs chicken legs (with or without skin)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
3 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup ketchup
1/3 cup hoisin sauce (store bought or see Hoisin Sauce Recipe)

Steps:

  • Wash and dry chicken legs. Place chicken legs in a non-metallic dish or resealable plastic bag. To make marinade, place marinade ingredients in a 2-cup measuring cup and stir until well combined. Pour marinade over chicken and cover or close bag. Marinate in refrigerator several hours or overnight.
  • To make basting sauce, place sauce ingredients in a 2-cup measuring cup and stir until well combined; set aside.
  • Preheat grill and lightly coat with oil or cooking spray. Drain chicken and discard marinade. Place chicken on prepared grill 4 to 6 inches from source of heat.
  • Cook 25 to 30 minutes, turning occasionally. Brush chicken with basting sauce and continue to grill an additional 10 to 15 minutes, basting and turning frequently until chicken is no longer pink inside. Watch closely to prevent over browning.

This recipe is a keeper! The chicken legs were so flavorful and juicy. I served them with rice and vegetables, and it was a perfect meal.

The chicken legs were a bit dry, but the glaze was delicious. I think I'll try brining the chicken next time to see if that helps.

This Peking glazed chicken legs recipe was a hit with my family! The chicken was crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. The sauce was perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of sweetness and tang. I will definitely be making
