Categories     Chicken Thigh & Leg

Time 1h10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 lbs skinless chicken legs
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3/4 cup water
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
2 garlic cloves, finely minced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375*.
  • Place skinless chicken legs in a roasting pan and bake covered for 60 minutes.
  • Drain all juices and save for another purpose.
  • While legs are cooking make the sauce. Combine sugar with cornstarch.
  • Add water, honey abd minced garlic in a saucepan.
  • Bring to a boil stirring constantly.
  • When chicken legs are cooked place in a heat proof casserole.
  • Pour sauce over and serve immediately or keep warm in oven.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken drumsticks: Look for plump, meaty drumsticks with smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid drumsticks that are bruised or have any signs of freezer burn.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of honey, garlic, soy sauce, and other seasonings helps to infuse it with flavor and makes it more tender. Be sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat helps to ensure that it cooks evenly without burning. If you cook the chicken over too high of heat, it will brown too quickly on the outside but remain undercooked on the inside.
  • Baste the chicken with the marinade: Basting the chicken with the marinade while it cooks helps to keep it moist and flavorful. Be sure to baste the chicken every few minutes, especially during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: Honey garlic chicken drumsticks can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
