How To Make japanese chicken
-
Step 1Place all the ingredients in a saucepan over a high heat.
-
Step 2Bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer for about 20 minutes. Remove any stuff that rises to the surface.
-
Step 3Increase the heat, turning the drumsticks frequently in the liquid, and cook until the liquid has reduced to a sticky glaze.
-
Step 4Arrange the chicken on a serving platter, remove the garlic clove and chili from the liquid, and spoon the glaze over. NOTE: This is a glaze not a sauce, so there won't be a lot of it.
-
Step 5P.S. For those who want EXTRA GLAZE, double the ingredients. You can put it over rice! Also, try in the crockpot and let it cook for 4 hours on low. The crock pot made the chicken so tender it was falling off the bone. You can add any ckicken parts you want.
