Recipe - Gingered Chicken Legs

6 Chicken legs
5 tablespoon Taiwanese sweet chili; (hot)
sauce
5 tablespoon Honey
3 tablespoon Soy sauce
1 tablespoon Minced fresh ginger root
One half teaspoon Salt
One fourth teaspoon Pepper; (Chinese usually use
white pepper)
2 tablespoon Water
1 tablespoon Cornstarch

Wash the chicken legs and set aside. Mix together thoroughly all the other
ingredients except the water and cornstarch. Preheat a baking dish for 4
minutes in the microwave. Arrange the chicken legs in the dish, drizzle the
mixed ingredients over the chicken, and heat in the microwave 16 minutes.
Remove the chicken legs from the dish and arrange on a serving platter. Mix
the water and cornstarch into the sauce remaining from heating the chicken
legs. Heat for 30 seconds in the microwave, drizzle the sauce over the
chicken legs, and serve. Note: I prefer baking the chicken legs in a
toaster oven! I cover with foil for the first part of the heating (at about
375400 degrees) and remove the foil towards the end for gentle browning.
Baste occasionally during the baking. Serve with steamed white rice.
