Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken drumsticks: Look for drumsticks that are about the same size so they cook evenly. You can also use chicken thighs if you prefer.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of maple syrup, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger will help to tenderize the chicken and infuse it with flavor.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat will help to prevent it from burning. You can also bake the chicken at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Baste the chicken with the maple glaze: Basting the chicken with the maple glaze will help to keep it moist and flavorful. You can also sprinkle the chicken with brown sugar or sesame seeds before baking.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: Maple chicken drumsticks can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.
