Ingredients

Method

1.

Preheat oven to 180°C fan‑forced (200°C conventional). Line an oven tray with baking paper. Cut small parallel lines in each drumstick, then rub with olive oil, sesame oil and five spice. Arrange on prepared tray and cook for 15 minutes.

2.

Meanwhile, combine soy, honey, lemon juice and ginger in a small saucepan over a low heat to simmer. When a probe thermometer tested into the thick part of a drumstick reads 60°C, arrange shallots in tray with drumsticks

3.

Baste drumsticks every 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked. Drumsticks are ready when a probe thermometer reads 75°C. Scatter with sesame seeds then serve with rice and Chinese broccoli.
