Step-by-Step Method
Mix the sauce
In a small bowl, stir together the dark soy sauce, ginger wine, oyster sauce, sugar, and water until the sugar loosens up.
Arrange chicken and aromatics
Place the drumsticks in a wide pot in a single layer. Scatter the crushed garlic and sliced ginger over the top.
Add sauce and bring to a simmer
Pour the sauce over the chicken. Set over medium heat and bring it just to a gentle boil, then lower the heat.
Braise slowly
Cover and cook on low for 55–60 minutes. Turn the drumsticks a couple of times so they glaze evenly.
Reduce the sauce
Uncover and simmer for about 5 minutes to thicken the sauce slightly. If it reduces too much, add a splash of water.
Rest and serve
Turn off the heat and let it sit for 5 minutes. Spoon the sauce over the drumsticks when serving.
