Balsamic Chicken Drumsticks image

This recipe is courtesy of Giada De Laurentiis. I haven't actually made it, but I work with a young lady who prepared it and brought it to the office. This was so good we looked like some hogs "slopping at the trough" gnawing on those drumsticks and licking our fingers. We were even eating the marinade after all the chicken was gone because we didn't want to waste a drop. If you wanted to serve this as an appetizer you could use the "drumettes" from the chicken wings. The original recipe does not call for salt, but after tasting it I feel it does need some salt so I listed it as an optional ingredient.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup honey

  • Bring marinade to a boil then reduce the heat and simmer over low heat, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove from heat.
  • During the last 10 minutes baste chicken with the marinade.
  • Place chicken on a serving platter and baste with the remaining glaze.
  • Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and chopped parsley.
