Ingredients:
- 3 big chicken drumsticks
- 1 packet of Cravins Char Siew Sauce
- 1 tbsp of chinese cooking wine
- 1 tbsp of oyster sauce
- 1 cucumber (sliced)
- 1 tomato (sliced)
- 2 cups of jasmine rice
- 1.8-2 cups of chicken stock (depending on how you want your rice to be)
- 3 stalks of pandan leaves (tear and tied in knot)
- 1 thumb size ginger (sliced)
- 6-8 cloves of garlic with skin (wash and smashed)
Method:
- Add 2 tbsp of salt to chicken drumsticks. Rub all over drumsticks to remove smell and scums. Rinsed away 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 or at least 4 hours.
- 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 210 degrees 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.
Chicken rice:
Wash 2 cups of jasmine rice. Add homemade chicken stock, pandan leaves, sliced ginger and smashed garlic. Add about 1 tbsp of salt. Mixed well and cook rice as per normal in rice cooker.
