Teriyaki Drumettes

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups white sugar
• 1 cup soy sauce
• 1 cup water
• 2 tablespoons ground ginger
• 3 cloves garlic, diced
• 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 1/2 pounds chicken drumettes

Directions

Combine sugar, soy sauce, and water in an 8-quart pot; stir until sugar is dissolved. Turn heat to medium-high; add ginger, garlic, cinnamon, and black pepper and stir.

Bring mixture to a boil and add chicken drumettes. Once mixture begins to boil again, reduce heat to medium-low, and partially cover pot with a lid tilted to allow steam to escape. Simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and teriyaki sauce is thickened, at least 1 hour.
