Sticky Korean Chicken Drumsticks Recipes

Steps:

• Tip all of the marinade ingredients into a mixing bowl with a good grinding of pepper and whisk them together. Score the drumsticks with a sharp knife, if you like, and toss them in the marinade. Cover and chill for as long as you can - overnight is good but 24 hrs is even better.
• Heat the oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 4. Lay the drumsticks on a shallow roasting tray and spoon over any excess marinade from the bowl. Roast the chicken for 40 mins, then baste with the sticky juices in the tin. Turn the oven up to 220C/200C fan/gas 8 and continue to cook the chicken for 20 mins more, or until caramelised (it's fine for it to char a little). Use tongs to lift the chicken onto a platter and scatter over some sliced red chilli and spring onions, if you like. Serve with coleslaw and plenty of napkins. Cold beers are optional.

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine the garlic, ginger, chili, honey, and soy sauce.
• Mix in the chicken drumsticks.
• Cover with cling film and leave to marinate in the fridge for 4-6 hours, or overnight.
• Fry the chicken in a large pan, on all sides for about 10-15 minutes, stirring often to prevent the marinade from burning, until golden brown.
• Remove from the pan and pour in the marinade.
• Bring to a boil and stir, until the marinade is thick and resembles a sauce.
• Throw the chicken back in the pan and fry for a further 5-10 minutes in the sauce, making sure each drumstick is evenly coated and cooked through.
• Garnish with sesame seeds and spring onions.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Make 3 slashes on each of the drumsticks. Mix together the soy, honey, oil, tomato purée and mustard. Pour this mixture over the chicken and coat thoroughly. Leave to marinate for 30 mins at room temperature or overnight in the fridge. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6.
• Tip the chicken into a shallow roasting tray and cook for 35 mins, turning occasionally, until the chicken is tender and glistening with the marinade.

Steps:

• Mix together the chilli sauce, ginger, soy sauce and lime zest. Pour over the chicken drumsticks and leave to marinate for as long as you can (put them in the fridge if marinating for any longer than 30 mins).
• Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Place the drumsticks in a shallow baking tray, shaking off any excess marinade. Roast for 20 mins, then pour over the leftover marinade and cook for 5 mins more until sticky and browned.
