Product description
THE PRODUCT:
Certified organic, UAE-raised chicken drumsticks — the lower leg of the bird, bone-in, skin-on. Free range. Never frozen. Hormone-free. Antibiotic-free.
Drumsticks are one of the most practical and flavourful chicken cuts for family cooking: naturally self-basting (the skin renders over the meat during cooking), bone-in (which adds flavour and moisture during roasting and braising), and satisfying to eat. Free-range organic drumsticks are noticeably firmer and more flavourful than conventional equivalents.
APPLICATIONS:
Oven-roasted (crispy):
Score the skin. Season generously with sea salt, olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, and dried herbs. Roast at 200°C for 35–40 mins, turning once halfway. Internal temperature 75°C.
North African spice-rubbed:
Rub with harissa paste, cumin, smoked paprika, coriander, garlic, lemon juice. Marinate 2 hours. Grill 8–10 mins per side. Serve with couscous and chermoula.
Asian glaze:
Marinate in soy, honey, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, five-spice. Bake at 200°C for 35 mins, basting every 10 mins.
Braised (Coq au vin):
Brown in a heavy pot. Sauté lardons, mushrooms, and shallots. Deglaze with red wine. Add stock. Braise covered for 45–60 mins on low heat.
