Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups orange juice
1 cup pineapple juice
2 tbsp orange zest
2 tbsp minced garlic
2 tbsp minced ginger
2 tbsp minced green onion
1 tbsp sesame oil
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup mirin ( sweet rice wine)
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
12 chicken drumsticks
2 tbsp essence , recipe follows
2 tsp salt
2 tbsp chopped cilantro leaves
1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
In a large saute pan set over medium-high heat, place the orange juice, pineapple juice, orange zest, garlic, ginger, green onion, sesame oil, soy sauce, mirin, sugar and red pepper flakes. Bring the pan to a boil and stir occasionally until the sugar is dissolved and the liquid has reduced to a thick syrup, about 20 minutes.
Season the drumsticks with the Essence and salt. Place on a sheet pan or casserole and drizzle liberally with the glaze. Place the casserole in the oven, and cook until the chicken is cooked through and caramelized, about 40 to 45 minutes. To serve, garnish with chopped fresh cilantro, and the sesame seeds. Serve with any unused glaze on the side.

2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano

Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
Yield: 2/3 cup
