Recipe: Thai Drumsticks

Main Dishes - Chicken, Poultry
THAI DRUMSTICKS

6 drumsticks
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
1/4 cup cilantro stems and leaves, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tsp. salt
2 limes, squeezed for juice
1/4 cup Asian fish sauce, such as nam pla
3 tbsp. light brown sugar
2 tbsp. vegetable oil
1 tbsp. Tabasco sauce

Prick chicken flesh all over with the tines of a fork.

Puree jalapeno, cilantro, garlic, salt, lime juice, fish sauce, sugar and vegetable oil in a food processor or blender until finely minced.

Season chicken all over with salt and Tabasco. Arrange chicken in a large shallow dish or large resealable plastic bags and pour marinade over it. Cover with plastic wrap or seal and refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight, turning drumsticks occasionally. Bring chicken to room temperature.

WHEN READY TO COOK:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Arrange drumsticks in a single layer in a shallow baking pan. Pour marinade in a small saucepan, bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes; set aside.

Bake chicken for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F, turn drumsticks and bake 15 minutes longer. Pour on marinade and continue baking until juices run clear when drumstick is pierced with a skewer, about 10 minutes.

Preheat broiler.

Pass chicken under broiler until skin is lightly charred, about 5 minutes. Arrange on a serving platter and pour juices over drumsticks.

Makes 6 drumsticks or 3 servings
