Ingredients

  • ½ cup (120ml) tamari

  • ½ cup (120ml) chicken broth

  • 4 tbsp. Thai sweet chili sauce

  • 2 tbsp. sriracha

  • 2 tbsp. coconut sugar

  • juice of 1 lime

  • 1" fresh ginger, peeled & minced

  • 3 cloves garlic, crushed

  • 4 lbs. (1.8kg) chicken drumsticks

  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced

  • 1 tsp. sesame seeds to garnish

Directions

Whisk together the tamari, chicken broth, Thai sweet chili sauce, sriracha, coconut sugar, lime juice, ginger, and garlic in a large bowl.

Place the chicken drumsticks into a large bowl and pour over the marinade, taking time to ensure each drumstick is well coated. Cover the bowl and marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes or, if time allows, overnight.

When ready to cook, place the drumsticks into the bowl of the slow cooker and pour over the marinade. Cook on high for 3 hours until the drumsticks are tender and cooked.

Preheat the broiler (grill) to high. Line a large baking sheet with kitchen foil.

Transfer the drumsticks to the baking sheet and broil until golden and crisp, roughly 3-5 minutes. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds, and serve hot.
