How to Make

  • Step 1: Combine soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Add 2 Tbsp. water and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly until thickened, about 2 minutes. Cool slightly and strain, discarding solids.

  • Step 2: Preheat a broiler to high and place a broiling rack 6 to 8 inches from heat source. (or make on the outdoor grill in a foil pan).

  • Step 3: Arrange drumsticks snugly in a large greased baking sheet and season with salt and pepper on all sides. Pour sauce over and turn drumsticks several times to coat thoroughly.

  • Step 4: Broil or grill until chicken is browned, about 25 to 30 minutes, or until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with a knife. While cooking, turn pan around from back to front every 2 to 3 minutes and use tongs to turn drumsticks over. If liquid in baking sheet starts to scorch, add water, 1/4 cup at a time.

  • Step 5: Remove drumsticks from pan and cool slightly before serving.
