Honey Char Siew Drumsticks
Ingredients:
3 big chicken drumsticks
Marinate:
- 4 tbsp of Lee Kum Kee Char Siew Sauce
- 3 tbsp of Lee Kum Kee oyster sauce
- 2 tbsp of light soya sauce
- 3 tbsp of sugar
- 2 tbsp of honey
- 1 tbsp of cooking wine
Method:
- Add 2 tbsp of salt to chicken drumsticks. Rub all over drumsticks to remove smell and scums. Rinsed always salt and pat dry. Use a fork to poke all over drumsticks. This will help the marinate to penetrate into the meat.
- Mix marinate in a bowl. Place chicken into a ziplock bag and pour in the marinate. Seal bag and massage to ensure chicken is well coated with marinate. Chill overnight.
- Remove chicken from fridge 30 mins before cooking. Preheat oven at 180 deg. Place chicken on baking dish without the marinate. Keep the marinate to baste the chicken while grilling.
- Grill chicken for 30-40mins at the lowest rack, flip once in between and baste with the marinate.
- Increase to 210deg to brown the chicken. Mix 2 tbsp of honey with 1 tbsp of water. Brush on chicken. Shift chicken to higher rack. Brown for about 10-15mins. Remove chicken when done. Let it rest for 5 mins before chopping to smaller pieces of serve as a whole with chicken rice and blanched vegetables. (** Chicken is done when you poke through with a chopstick and there is no blood in juice from chicken.)
*** Note: Oven temp varies so you have to gauge your own oven when grilling chicken.
