Spicy Nutmeg Chicken Drumsticks

[sd4547]

Looks so good! I love cooking with rum.

[kooktocook]

@sd4547 Hi Greg! Yes, I do too. Works really nice across many foods. I also have BBQ Rum Sauce posted here somewhere. Damn tasty!

The recipe is here is a direct source one from a little old lady who has been making it like this for decades. I really love this chicken (off to see if I have some rum as I could go for this tonight). KtC

[cisjohn2616]

I'll have this tonight with my Japanese fried rice !

[kooktocook]

@cisjohn2616 A nice combo. Enjoy the chicken, I prepare it probably monthly. Tasty stuff! cheers, KtC

[Elly351]

This would probably go nicely with fried plantains on the side. mmmm.....

[timmi59]

@kooktocook

The music is awesome, did you mix it yourself?=)

[kooktocook]

A few samples mixed together with a bit of reverb. It works with the vids, although I may change. Not sure.

KtC

[mehquig]

Looking just juicy!

[kooktocook]

A different way to enjoy chicken. cheers! KtC

[simbayukiwolf]

Going to try this one out today, looks very tasty.

[kooktocook]

There he is! Out in the sun too much?

Try grilling them up on the BBQ instead of the oven.

Really, really good chicken. Plus you have the rum to dring with it too. lol

best, r

[mariachris]

I'm trying this tomorrow!

[kooktocook]

Very tasty. Yes, please try! cheers, KtC

[ToriSterling]

Does it taste anything like Jerk Chicken? It looks real good! I'm going to try this.

[kooktocook]

Hi Tori! As in Jamaican Jerk? I say that because down that way a few countries have their own 'jerk chicken/ pork' so to speak.

This is a Grenada style jerk. A more sweet (with the rum/ sugar) chicken than the Jamaican style. The Jamaican uses 'thyme' while this version the 'nutmeg'.

You have me thinking Jamaican Jerk now mmmmm.

Yes, very tasty, please :)

cheers! KtC

[angelgirl2001]

They look so good.

[kooktocook]

Thanks Jennifer, a must try. cheers! KtC

[angelgirl2001]

Your so welcome....

[yoyomax12]

I love the spice combination in this! I bet this would also be good in a slow cooker.

[kooktocook]

That would work wouldn't it? Perhaps too sticky? Not sure? I say 'experiment' :D

I have prepared it two ways. One is to rub the spices in the chicken and basically stew in covered dish in oven/ BBQ until cooked. The Nutmeg Syrup is prepared and then applied when grilled/ crispen (a la BBQ). A well known traditional method. However, the method shown is also very 'common' within Grenada (parts of Carribean), as well as the open fire method.

You will want to try this Tammy!

cheers, KtC

[kooktocook]

'Caribbean' :) ooops

[natesrry]

NOM NOM NOM looks delicious

[kooktocook]

:) very KtC

[daysioc]

Yummy!!!

[kooktocook]

oh yeahhhhh

cheers, KtC

[fezan84]

Nice, I'll have to try this =]

[kooktocook]

a must. if you do, let me know :)

KtC

[nonppl30]

wut is soya sauce?is it like soy sause?

[kooktocook]

Same thing. KtC

[ladeeda81]

yum!

[kooktocook]

yep :)

[johannjokull]

do you have to use dark rum? some sub for that?

[kooktocook]

The recipe just doesn't work without the rum. A white rum would work if that is all available. Further note ** the alcohol is there (although not much). It doesn't really go anywhere in this one, hence the rum flavour sauce/ syrup.

Good chicken though, really tasty. cheers, KtC

[ZivEstVeritas]

Salt?

[kooktocook]

Some would put it in there but with the soya sauce, it has all the salt that is required. Nice question, cheers mate. KtC

[CrystalNightFox]

That looks fantastic kook. No shock there.

[kooktocook]

really tasty and easy chicken. Any pieces can be used but the less expensive ones work best. thank you :)

KtC

[scentedhoneysuckle]

Omg... that sauce looks wonderful... yes, i'm into gravy/sauces this period! :-D

5 thumbs up as always, KtC!

[kooktocook]

A nice sauce. 'Actually referred to as a syrup 'Grenada Rum Syrup'.

cheers, KtC

[kooktocook]

ooops I meant 'Grenada Nutmeg Syrup'

mmmm rum

[Texa41]

Those look like they'd be great at Christmas, with the rum and nutmeg.  Would that sauce be good with meatballs as well?

Oh and you're mine mine mine.. back off ladies :P

[kooktocook]

A search for 'Grenada Rum Syrup' will find the recipe. It can be used for almost anything. mmmm meatballs.

catfight!

[SweetPhase]

LOL @ LCBO!

i didn't know you were from canada let alone ONTARIO!!

yaaaay for ontario haha <3

LOVE YOUR VIDEOS BTW!

[kooktocook]

lol Yes, I am in Ontario. I guess that gave it away :D

thank you! KtC

[cainey66]

wow

[kooktocook]

cheers mate!

[Hyphy101dre]

great job as always KTC

how do these taste?

[kooktocook]

great! Quite different. Folks familar with the Grenada Rum Sauce and variable associated recipes will love this. Those who have not tried must. I worked with powder nutmeg but if you can, use some fresh stuff. Very 'rum' tasting so those who dislike the booze will have to skip this one. It is what makes it (and the nutmeg). Please try and get back :)

KtC

[Hyphy101dre]

i made them and they r yummy!

[kooktocook]

@Hyphy101dre

Thanks for trying and letting me know. A tasty chicken for sure! cheers, KtC
