Asian Glazed Drumsticks

Ingredients:

8 medium chicken drumsticks, skin removed
olive oil spray
1 cup water
1 tbsp Sriracha
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce
1 tbsp honey (or sugar)
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tsp ginger, grated
2 tbsp chives or scallions, chopped
1 tsp sesame seeds


Directions:

In a heavy large saucepan, brown chicken on high for 3-4 minutes with a little spray oil. Add water, balsamic, soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, hot sauce and cook on high until liquid comes to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered for about 20 minutes. Remove cover and bring heat to high, allowing sauce to reduce down, about 8-10 minutes, until it becomes thick, turning chicken occasionally. (Keep an eye on glaze, you don't want it to burn when it start becoming thick) Transfer chicken to a platter and pour sauce on top. Top with chives and sesame seeds and serve.

8/2/13: the sauce was very potent so next time I will try less soy sauce and vinegar and more water. But it was very yummy!
