STICKY GINGER & HOISIN CHICKEN

This is one of those meals that hardly requires a recipe but friends and family frequently ask for it. Serve drumsticks with sticky rice and steamed greens.  

This recipe is sponsored by the lovely folk at Waitoa Chicken. Their free range chicken products are available at all good supermarkets.

Serves 4

INGREDIENTS

8 waitoa free range chicken drumsticks
½ cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
¼ teaspoon ground garlic powder
1 tablespoons fresh grated ginger
1 red chilli, finely chopped
1 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds

METHOD

In a large bowl, combine all ingredients apart from the sesame seeds. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours. 

Heat oven to 190ºC and line a baking tray with baking paper. 

Place chicken on the lined baking tray and bake for 35-40 minutes or until cooked through and golden. Turn drumsticks over half way through cooking and baste with any remaining marinade.
