- 8 medium chicken drumsticks, skin removed
- Pam spray oil
- 1 cup water
- 1 tbsp Sriracha hot sauce
(more or less to taste)
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 4 tsp agave
nectar (or sugar)
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tsp ginger, grated
- 2 tbsp chives or scallions, chopped
- 1 tsp sesame seeds
In a heavy large saucepan, brown chicken on high for 3-4 minutes with a little spray oil. Add water, balsamic, soy sauce, agave, garlic, ginger, hot sauce and cook on high until liquid comes to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered for about 20 minutes. Remove cover and bring heat to high, allowing sauce to reduce down, about 8 minutes until it becomes a thick glaze, turning chicken occasionally. (Keep an eye on glaze, you don’t want it to burn when it start becoming thick) Transfer chicken to a platter and pour glaze on top. Top with chives and sesame seeds and serve
*The recipe source used drumsticks, but I had thighs, already, in the freezer. ”Paid for” is good. Hers are “prettier” than mine…cuz all I had was black sesame seeds…but I’ll bet it didn’t taste better! Also…she uses far more for servings than I do…but she never had her guts re-arranged, either.
