Step 3: Prepare the chicken
Take the knife and cut a few slits into each drumstick. This will allow the marinade to soak into the meat.

Cover with cold water and add 4 tbsp of the marinade.
Bring to the boil and then simmer gently for 10 minutes, skimming off any excess foam that rises to the surface.

Remove the drumsticks from the water and leave them to cool.
When cool, cover them with the remaining marinade and season with salt and pepper.
