I was experimenting in the kitchen one day and discovered a gem of a recipe using chicken and vodka. This is my simple recipe for Roast Chicken with Vodka accompanied by a Vodka Apple sauce.
What you need:
For the Roast Chicken:
- 4 Medium sized chicken drumsticks
- 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce
- half teaspoon of light soy sauce
- half teaspoon of worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons of Vodka
- Mixed herbs and pepper
For the sauce:
- Remaining chicken marinade
- Apple Sauce
- Sugar
Serves: 2 persons
How to:
- Marinade the drumsticks with all the ingredients above and leave for at least half an hour or overnight for better flavour.
- Lay the chicken drumsticks on some foil or in a roasting tin and roast in an oven at 200 Celcius for about 20-30 minutes, turning frequently so it does not burn. If you find the chicken drying out, you can use the marinade to baste it. Roast till brown.
- In the meantime, pour the remaining marinade into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir and let it reduce a little then add 2 generous spoonfuls of apple sauce. Stir until mixed then turn off the fire.
- Serve the roast chicken with the sauce on the side.
The chicken has quite a piquant flavour and you don’t get much taste of the vodka. However, the sauce makes up for it by being both a little sweet and a little salty. With the Vodka and worcestershire sauce, the sauce can be a little sharp on the tongue so the sugar helps to tone it down a little.
Importantly its quick and easy to prepare, and tasty too! I would serve it with a green salad to take the edge off the tart flavour of the sauce. Yummy!
