By Nanadi-2

Ingredients

• Garnish:
• 3 3 3 lbs. chicken drumsticks*
• 1 1 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 1 1 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 1/4 1/4 cup dry sherry (or chicken broth)
• 1 1 1 tbsp honey
• 2 2 2 tsp ground ginger
• 1 1 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 1 1 tsp onion powder
• 2 2 2 tbsp corn starch
• sesame seeds
• sliced green onions

Preparation

Step 1

Arrange the top rack of the oven to be about 5 inches from the top heating element, preheat oven to broil. Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray.
Arrange the chicken on the baking sheet and broil for 5 minutes on each side. Place the chicken in the slow cooker in an even layer. In a medium bowl whisk together the brown sugar, soy sauce, dry sherry, honey, ginger, garlic powder and onion powder. Pour over the chicken and cook on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours, LOW for 6 to 8 hours. Rotate the chicken halfway through, to make sure all are coated in the sauce.
Once chicken is done turn broiler on again. Place chicken on a foil lined baking sheet in an even layer.
Pour the sauce from the slow cooker into a small pot and bring it to a low boil. In a small dish combine the 2 tbsp corn starch and 2 tbsp water, stirring until smooth. Pour into the sauce in the pot and stir until sauce thickens. Brush the chicken with the sauce and broil for 2 minutes, flip chicken, brush with more sauce, and broil an additional 2 minutes.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish. Enjoy!
