Five-Spice Roast Chicken Drumsticks image

In Hong Kong they love and are famed for their skill at rotisserie-style cooking, where whole ducks, chickens and pigs, with their entrails, are roasted to a golden or soy color. Many eateries display a range of cooked food in their window fronts to entice diners. Inspired by this style of cooking, my simple five-spice roasted drumsticks make a simple dinner.

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cloves garlic, crushed and chopped
2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 tablespoon groundnut oil (peanut)
1 tablespoon Shaohsing rice wine or dry sherry
2 teaspoons five-spice powder
2 1/4 pounds skin-on chicken drumsticks

Steps:

  • In a bowl, combine the garlic, ginger, honey, soy sauce, groundnut oil, rice wine, and five-spice powder. Add the drumsticks, and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Then, let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for as long as possible. Overnight is ideal, but 10 minutes is fine if you do not have enough time. When ready to cook, preheat an oven to 350 degrees F. Arrange the chicken drumsticks on a roasting pan, and roast for 30 minutes, or until their skins are golden.

I've never made Chinese food before, but this recipe was so easy to follow. The chicken came out perfect and the sauce was amazing. I'll definitely be making this recipe again.

This recipe is so versatile! I've made it with chicken thighs, chicken breasts, and even pork chops. It's always delicious. I love that I can change up the ingredients and still get a great meal.

I'm not a big fan of five-spice powder, so I used a blend of other spices that I liked. The chicken still came out great! I'll definitely be making this recipe again.

I made this recipe for a party and it was a huge success! Everyone loved the chicken and kept asking me for the recipe. I'll definitely be making it again soon.

I love the simplicity of this recipe. I just tossed the chicken and sauce ingredients in a bag and let it marinate for a few hours. Then I threw it in the oven and forgot about it until dinnertime. It was so easy and delicious!

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times now, and it's always a hit. The chicken is so tender and juicy, and the sauce is the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and savory.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chicken came out dry. Maybe I cooked it for too long? I'll try again soon and see if I can get it right.

This is my go-to recipe for Chinese takeout night at home. The chicken is always crispy and flavorful, and the sauce is addictive. I highly recommend it!

Five-star recipe! The chicken was moist and juicy, and the sauce was perfect. I served it with jasmine rice and steamed broccoli, and it was a hit with my guests.

My family went nuts over these chicken drumsticks! I used a store-bought five-spice powder blend and they still had a ton of flavor. I'll definitely be making this recipe again.
