2 TBSPs light soy sauce
4 chicken drumsticks
1/2 TSP sesame oil
1 TBSP peanut oil
1/2 TSP fine sugar

Recipe Instructions:

Combine garlic, ginger, butter, 2 TBSP yuzu and 1 TBSP soy sauce in a bowl.
Add chicken and turn to coat.
Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes to marinate.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Drain chicken, reserving marinade, and pat dry.
Place on a baking paper-lined baking tray and roast, basting with reserved marinade every 15 minutes, for 1 hour or until golden and cooked through (cover with foil if browning too quickly).


Meanwhile, combine slaw ingredients in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk sesame oil, peanut oil, sugar and remaining 2 TBSP yuzu and 1 TBSP soy.
Toss with slaw to combine.

Serve chicken and slaw sprinkled with sesame seeds, with lemon to squeeze over.
