GINGER CHICKEN

The sweet glaze turns dark and sticky under the broiler or grill.

INGREDIENTS
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
2 teaspoons soy sauce
8 chicken drumsticks, skinned
black pepper
lettuce and crusty bread, to serve

SERVES 4

1. Combine the lemon juice, brown sugar, grated ginger, soy sauce and pepper.

2. With a sharp knife, slash the chicken drumsticks about three times through the thickest part, then toss the chicken in the glaze.

3. Cook the chicken drumsticks under a hot broiler or on a barbecue grill, turning occasionally and brushing with the glaze, until the chicken is dark gold and the juices run clear, not pink, when pierced with a skewer. Serve on a bed of lettuce with crusty bread, if you like.
