Prep35 MIN
Cook45 MIN
Serves4
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup dry sherry
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 4 bone-in chicken pieces, with skin (about 2 pounds), either thighs or drumsticks or a mixture
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
Instructions
- 1. In a large bowl, combine the sherry, soy sauce and sugar. Add the chicken pieces and marinate at least 1 hour and up to 8 hours.
- 2. Light a grill or preheat a grill pan. Grill the chicken over moderately high heat, turning occasionally, until the chicken is lightly charred and cooked through, about 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a work surface and let rest for 5 minutes.
- 3. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring the sherry–soy sauce marinade to a boil. Cook for 1 minute. Serve the chicken garnished with the cilantro and with the sauce on the side.
