I often serve these with rice, an easy cabbage slaw, kimchi and sesame seeds.
3 tbsp marmalade
4 tbsp soy sauce
1⁄4 cup orange juice
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp grated ginger, freshly grated
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 ‒ 2 tbsp hot sauce, to taste
1 kg chicken drumsticks, skin on
spring onions (shallots), sliced
Sesame seeds

In this recipe I use the Cornersmith Blood Orange Marmalade and the Cornersmith Smoked Chilli but just substitute for whatever you have open in the fridge. Jam works equally well!
