4 Lay the chicken drumsticks in a bamboo or other steamer basket (or use a colander fitted
inside a large pot, if you don't have a steamer basket). Place the steamer over a pan of boiling
water, cover, and steam for 10-15 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan, and let cool
slightly.
2 Preheat the oven to 400 F (200 C). Mix together the flour, salt, and pepper. Firmly pat the
mixture all over the chicken to coat. Place the drumsticks in a roasting pan with 1 tbsp of
vegetable oil, and cook for 10-15 minutes until erispy and golden.
3 Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tbsp of vegetable oil in a wok or frying pan over high heat.
‘Add the chiles and scallions, and cook for about 5 minutes until lightly browned at the edges.
Remove with a slotted spoon, and drain on paper towels. To serve, sprinkle the scallion
mixture over the hot drumsticks, and garnish with lemon wedges for squeezing.
