2 tablespoons orange zest |
2 tablespoons minced garlic |
2 tablespoons minced ginger |

1 tablespoon sesame oil |
1/2 cup soy sauce |
1/2 cup mirin (sweet rice wine) |
1 cup sugar |
1 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes |
12 chicken drumsticks |
2 tablespoons essence, recipe follows |
2 teaspoons salt |
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves |

Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
2. 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.
