Sweet and Sticky Chicken Drumsticks
Sweet and Sticky Chicken Drumsticks
1/2 c. balsamic vinegar
1/2 c. honey
1/2 c. light brown sugar, packed
1/4 c. soy sauce
5 fresh rosemary sprigs
5 garlic cloves, halved
10 to 12 chicken drumsticks
2 tbsp. toasted sesame seeds
1/4 c. chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/2 c. honey
1/2 c. light brown sugar, packed
1/4 c. soy sauce
5 fresh rosemary sprigs
5 garlic cloves, halved
10 to 12 chicken drumsticks
2 tbsp. toasted sesame seeds
1/4 c. chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
- Combine the balsamic vinegar, honey, brown sugar, soy sauce, rosemary sprigs, and garlic cloves in a large, resealableplastic bag. Shake and squeeze the contents of the bag to dissolve the honey and the brown sugar. Add the chicken drumsticks to the bag and seal, squeezing out as much air from the bag as possible. Marinate in the refrigerator for two hours.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Remove the chicken drumsticks from the bag, reserving the marinade, and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the skin is caramelized and very dark in spots, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the marinade in a small saucepan. Bring the marinade to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook over low heat until thick, about 15 minutes.
- Use a pastry brush to brush some of the cooked marinade on the cooked chicken. Place the chicken on a serving platter. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and the chopped parsley.
Serves 4 to 6.
I promise the sauce is good enough to eat with a spoon. I’m not afraid to admit that we’ve been known to go as far as licking the plate over here. Enjoy!

Chicken Vegetable Egg Rolls with Hoisin-Peanut Dip
ingredients:
chicken vegetable egg rolls ingredients
- 1 pound ground chicken ( chicken breast or thigh meat)
- 1 cup Cabbage, shredded thin
- 3 green onions, small chopped
- 1/2 cup Carrot, grated (about 1 medium carrot)
- 3 large cloves garlic, minced
- 1 large egg
- 1 Tablespoon Fish sauce ( soy sauce, for the wimps) :)
- freshly grated black pepper
- 1 package of Egg Roll Wrappers or sometimes called "spring roll" wrappers in the freezer section of market.
- oil for frying.
- fresh lettuce leaves (optional)
hoisin-peanut dip ingredients
- about 1 cup of hoisin ( if it's too thick, water it down to dipping consistency)
- 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
- hot sauce or sriracha to taste (optional)
directions:
- Make the chicken egg roll filling. In large bowl, combine chicken, cabbage, green onions, carrot, garlic, raw egg, fish sauce and black pepper. Mix together well, making sure all the chicken combines with the vegetables. Cover and allow to marinade for about 20 minutes.
- Make the hoisin-peanut dip. In large bowl, combine all ingredients and whisk together well. If you are making a very large batch, you can use a blender by blending all the ingredients together. But make sure you add enough water because some brands of hoisin are very thick.
- Using egg roll wrappers or skins, add about 2 Tablespoons of chicken filling to each wrapper. Please watch the video here to learn how to roll even and tight rolls.
- Fill large frying pan with about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil. Heat to about 325 degrees.
- Slowly add egg rolls to frying pan, but do not crowd them because they will stick together if placed too close.
- Fry each side of egg roll for about 3 minutes or until crisp and brown. Flip over and cook other side till brown.
- Blot on paper towel to remove excess oil. Serve warm with hoisin-peanut dip.
- You can also wrap these chicken vegetable egg rolls in lettuce and them eat them as lettuce egg roll wraps!

Spicy & Sweet (Pan-) Fried Chicken [Versatile Chicken - Korean Way Series]
- IngredientsSeasoningSalt, pepper and about 1 TBSP fresh grated gingerSauce1/4 C gochujang, 1/4 C ketchup, 1 TBSP of sesame oil, 1 TBSP soy sauce, 2 cloves of grated garlic and 1/2 of a peeled, grated onion1/4 C corn syrup (you can substitute with honey, but you will lose the shiny stickiness of corn syrup)2 TBSP of toasted, chopped almonds (or any other nuts)Coatingcorn starch: sweet rice flour (찹쌀가루; chap ssal ga ru) = 1: 1 --> in this case, 1/4C and 1/4C would be enough. Sift to mix completely. You can also just use any starch powder alone.If frozen, defrost the chicken legs, thighs and wings slowly in the refrigerator overnight. Cut off the top of the wings and discard. Cut each thigh meat into 2-3 pieces, so you have 8-10 pieces total (2 legs, 2 wings and 4-6 pieces from thighs). Pat dry with paper towel, then rub each piece with fresh grated ginger and its juice. Season with salt and pepper and let them rest for 30 minutes to an hour.Make the sauce by mixing gochujang, ketchup, sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic and onion. In order to bring out the sweet onion flavor and meld all the flavors together, cook over low heat, stirring once in a while. You will see the sauce getting reduced and thicken slightly. Remove from heat, add corn syrup and stir to combine. Add toasted, chopped almonds (or any other nuts) and stir. Set aside.Dredge the chicken pieces in corn starch and sweet rice flour mix, and place them on a hot pan with vegetable oil enough to cover the bottom of the pan. Fill up the pan with all the chicken pieces if possible to minimize oil splattering. Pan-fry over medium-low heat to cook through, without burning the skin of the meat. Flip once to the other side when the bottom part turns golden. Check for doneness when both sides are golden which should be about 10 minutes of cooking.Coat the chicken pieces in the sauce and mix well. Now it's ready as banchan (반찬; side dish accompanying rice) or as anju (안주; side dish accompanying alcoholic beverages) with beer or soju!Time to take out a container of chicken stock (4 cups) and a bag of chicken breast meat from the freezer and move them to the refrigerator - we'll be making some chilled chicken soup appropriate for the summer!
