Chicken Drumettes In Japanese Style Demi-glace Sauce With Red Wine
- 12 to 15 Chicken drumettes - the first joint of a chicken wing
- 2 Onions
- 1 Carrot
- 6 Potatos
- 200 ml Red wine (dry)
- 2 1/2 cup Water
- 2 Soup stock cubes
- 1 Bay leaf
- 1 can Heinz Demi-Glace Sauce
- 3 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 pinch of each Salt and pepper
- 1 tbsp Butter
- 1 Vegetable oil
- This is all you need: Red wine (a cheap one or leftovers are fine); demi-glace in a can, and soy sauce.
- Heat some oil in a frying pan and brown the chicken skin side down first.
- (If you use a non-stick pan you don't need any oil.)
- Transfer the chicken from Step 2 to a pot and add the red wine.
- Simmer while turning the chicken occasionally until the wine has been reduced to about half.
- The chicken turns caramel-brown.
- Slice the carrot into rounds or cut in half lengthwise and slice into half-moon shapes.
- Cut the onion into 8 wedges.
- Saute both in the frying pan from Step 2 in a little oil
- When the wine has reduced in the pot, add the sauteed vegetables.
- Add the ingredients marked (water, soup cubes, bay leaf) and simmer for about 40 minutes with the lid half on.
- Skim off any scum occasionally.
- Near the end of the simmering time add the cut up potatoes (to prevent them from falling apart).
- I recommend this Heinz demi-glace.
- Put in the demi-glace and simmer for an additional 20 minutes, skimming off any scum.
- Take care not to let it burn.
- If it gets too thick, add a little water.
- Adjust the seasoning with the ingredients marked (soy sauce, salt and pepper) at the end.
- The soy sauce is the key!
- Drop in the butter to finish and it's done.
- The chicken is fall-off-the-bone tender.
- Good with rice or bread.
