YUMMY BAKED CHICKEN DRUMMIES

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 chicken drumsticks, bone-in, skin removed
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 large Vidalia onions, peeled, quartered and thinly slice
1/4 cup raisins
2 tablespoons rum
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Steps:

  • Wash the chicken and pat dry. In a baking dish large enough to hold the chicken in 1 layer, mix together the lemon juice, brown sugar, oil, garlic, paprika, garam masala, ginger, turmeric, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Arrange the chicken in a single layer in the baking dish. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and transfer to the oven. Bake until the chicken reaches 150 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 35 minutes.
  • While the chicken bakes, warm the butter in a pan over medium-low heat. Add the onions and a pinch of salt. Saute, cooking slowly, until the onions are golden brown and caramelized, about 20 minutes. Stir in the raisins and rum, and use a wooden spoon to loosen any onion bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until the alcohol evaporates, leaving just the rum scented flavor, about 2 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat. When the chicken reaches 150 degrees F, spoon the onion-raisin mixture over the chicken. Raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees F, then return chicken to the oven and bake for 10 minutes more, uncovered. The chicken will be fully cooked when it reaches 160 degrees F. Transfer to a serving platter and serve warm or cold.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of chicken pieces for a more flavorful soup. For example, use a combination of boneless, skinless chicken breasts and thighs.
  • Sauté the vegetables before adding them to the slow cooker. This will help to bring out their flavor.
  • Use a flavorful broth. Chicken broth or vegetable broth are both good options.
  • Add some spice to the soup with chili powder, cumin, or cayenne pepper.
  • Garnish the soup with fresh cilantro, sour cream, and tortilla chips before serving.
