Ingredients

  • 3 1/2 pounds drumsticks (see note)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1-2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper, more as desired
  • Cooked rice for serving (optional)
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Place chicken legs in a 9×13 baking dish (remove skin if desired). Combine the rest of the ingredients in a small bowl or measuring cup and pour over chicken.
  • Bake for 60 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. If desired, turn chicken once midway through cooking to help soak up all the great flavor of the sauce.
  • Serve with rice and top with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

  • I make these drumsticks either with the skin on or with the skin off. They both turn out great.
  • This recipe makes a lot of sauce. You could probably double the amount of chicken without having to increase the amount of sauce.
