Instructions

  1. Grilled Drumsticks with Onion Marmalade
    1. 1 Put drumsticks in a resealable plastic bag. Combine remaining ingredients and pour over drumsticks. Close bag and turn it so the marinade coats each drumstick. Refrigerate overnight.
    2. 2 Preheat barbecue on medium. Grill drumsticks, with the lid closed, until a thermometer inserted into the drumstick reads 165°F (74°C) (about 20 minutes). Serve with Onion Marmalade.
  2. Onion Marmalade
    1. 1 In a skillet, heat oil and sauté onions and shallots until deep brown. Pour in sugar and red wine; continue to stir cook until no liquid remains. May be served hot or cold.
