Ingredients

  • 10 chicken drumettes skin attached, cleaned and pat-dry

Hoisin-Ginger Marinade:

  • 2 inch (5cm) ginger peeled and minced
  • 1 clove garlic peeled and minced
  • 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 1/2 tablespoon mild chili sauce optional
  • 1/2 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 tablespoon honey or sugar
  • 1/2 tablespoon water

Instructions

  • Using a pair of scissors or a knife, cut the skin and tendons around the base of each drumette. Peel, scrape, and push the meat down toward the thick end to form a ball shape resembling a lollipop. Cut off the knuckle end with scissors or a knife. Repeat with the remaining chicken drumettes.
  • In a bowl, combine the Marinade ingredients. Add the chicken drumettes and coat them well. Marinate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (176°C). Arrange the chicken drumettes on a wire rack set over a baking pan. Bake until the chicken is nicely browned, slightly charred, and completely cooked through, about 35 minutes.
  • Serve with the dipping sauce of your choice, although they are delicious on their own without any sauce.
