Apricot-Glazed Chicken

Ingredients for Apricot-Glazed Chicken

• 60g finely chopped shallots (2 large)

• 30g finely chopped peeled ginger

• 2 cucchiai di olio vegetale

• 120ml red-wine vinegar

• 160ml soy sauce

• 240ml apricot preserves (350g)

• 16 chicken drumsticks (2.0kg)

Cook shallots and ginger in oil in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in vinegar and boil until reduced by about half, about 2 minutes. Add soy sauce, preserves, and 1/4 teaspoons each of salt and pepper and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes.

Purée sauce in a blender until smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids), then cool to room temperature.

Divide chicken between 2 large sealable bags and pour marinade over chicken. Seal bags, pressing out excess air, and marinate, chilled, turning bag over occasionally, at least 8 hours.

Preheat oven to 218°C with rack in middle.

Line a 17- by 12-inch shallow heavy baking pan with 2 slightly overlapping sheets of foil, then lightly oil foil. Arrange chicken (with marinade) in 1 layer in pan. Roast chicken, turning once, until deep brown, cooked through, and glazed, about 40 minutes total.
