Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs (750g) chicken drumsticks
- 1 piece ginger peeled and chopped, 2-inch/5cm
- 5 cloves garlic peeled and chopped
- 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1/2 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 3 dashes white pepper
- 1 pinch Chinese five-spice powder optional
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Rinse the chicken and pat it dry with paper towels. Add the ginger and garlic to the chicken and gently rub them in. Then, add the remaining ingredients and stir to mix well, ensuring the chicken drumsticks are evenly coated.
- Set aside to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the fridge for the best results.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 30-40 minutes in the middle of the oven, or until the surface is golden brown and slightly charred, and the inside is cooked through. Serve warm.

Notes
- If the ginger and garlic are burned on the surface of the chicken, scrape them off before serving. You may cover the chicken with aluminum foil to prevent the surface from getting too dark. You can do that in the middle of baking the chicken, once the chicken surface has turned dark but the inside is still not cooked.
