MOLASSES DRUMSTICKS WITH SOY SAUCE
| 1/4 |
cup lite soy sauce |
| 2 |
tablespoons lime juice |
| 8 |
chicken drumsticks, skin removed, rinsed, and patted dry |
| 2 |
tablespoons dark molasses |
- Stir the soy sauce and lime juice together in a
small bowl until well blended.
- Place the drumsticks in a large zippered plastic
bag. Add 3 tablespoons of the soy sauce mixture
to the bag. Seal tightly and shake back and forth
to coat chicken evenly. Refrigerate overnight or at least 2 hours, turning occasionally.
- Add the molasses to the remaining soy sauce mixture, cover with plastic, and refrigerate until needed.
- Preheat the broiler. Lightly coat the broiler rack and pan with nonstick cooking spray, place the drumsticks on the rack, and discard any marinade in the bag. Broil 6 inches away from the heat source for 25 minutes, turning every 5 minutes or until the drumsticks are no longer pink in the center.
- Place the drumsticks in a large bowl. Stir the reserved soy sauce mixture and pour it over the drumsticks. Toss the drumsticks gently to coat evenly and let them stand 3 minutes to develop flavors.
Cook’s Tips:
- These drumsticks are best served immediately.
- To remove skin from chicken thighs use paper towels to prevent the chicken from slipping. Hold the chicken with one hand and with a paper towel, grasp skin and pull down, use one paper towel for each piece of chicken. Then, simply discard skin and paper towel together.
