Ingredients:
1 cup white wine vinegar |
1 cup soy sauce |
1/2 cup light brown sugar |
4 cloves garlic, crushed |
3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
2 dried bay leaves |
12 chicken drumsticks |
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth |
3 tablespoons arrowroot |
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from 2 large limes) |
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or cilantro |
lime wedges |
Directions:
1. For the marinade: In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, garlic, red pepper flakes, and bay leaves. Whisk until the sugar has dissolved. 2. Arrange the chicken in a single layer in a 9-by-13-by-2-inch glass baking dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken and refrigerate for 2 hours, turning the chicken over halfway through. 3. Place the chicken and marinade in a large, high-sided skillet or Dutch oven and add the chicken broth. Bring the liquid to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 45 to 50 minutes, turning the chicken every 20 minutes, until cooked through and a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat registers 165 degrees F. Remove the chicken from the liquid and arrange on a serving platter. Discard the bay leaves and garlic cloves. Whisk the arrowroot and lime juice into the liquid and bring the mixture to a boil. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Pour the sauce over the chicken or serve alongside as a dipping sauce. Sprinkle with chopped parsley or cilantro, if using, and garnish with lime wedges. |
