- 4 pounds chicken drumettes
- 1/4 cup Safeway SELECT Soy Sauce
- 1/4 cup dry sherry
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons Asian (toasted) sesame oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Chinese five-spice powder
- 1 clove garlic, minced or pressed
- Rinse chicken and pat dry. In a large bowl, stir together soy sauce, sherry, honey, oil, five-spice, and garlic; add chicken and stir to coat evenly.
- Lift chicken pieces from glaze (reserve any remaining glaze) and arrange in a single layer in 2 shallow 10- by 15-inch baking pans. Bake, uncovered, in a 500 degree oven until chicken is dark brown and meat near bone is no longer pink; cut to test (22 to 25 minutes). Halfway through baking time, switch positions of pans and brush chicken with reserved glaze. If necessary, add 1 tablespoon water to each pan near end of baking time to prevent scorching.
