Rice Wine Braised Chicken Drumsticks

Rice Wine Braised Chicken Drumsticks

Chicken legs braise in sweet fermented rice wine for twenty minutes until the meat turns tender and lacquered in a gently boozy glaze. The natural sweetness rounds out the savory notes, an aromatic dish that tastes far more complex than its effort.
