Game Day Chicken Drummers

I know the big game is a few weeks away still, but if you are anything like me, the food, the half-time show  and the commercials are your favorite thing about Superbowl Sunday.  I find that drumsticks are pretty reasonably priced right now and they are definitely mure budget friendly than wings {which makes no since, to me, more meat should me more mula, non?} I digress... Anyhow, these budget friendly, sweet, spicy, sticky chicken drummers are a very easy to make and will be a real crowd pleaser, I promise!  And if you want to test them out before game day I won't tell! ;-)  I hope you'll give them a try!


Ingredients:
6 chicken legs (drumsticks) or substitute wings instead.
3/4 cups of Trader Joe's Island Soyaki Sauce (If you don't have Soyaki you could use 1/2 cup of teriyaki sauce and 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce)
2 tbs. honey
generous pinch of red pepper flakes (depending on how spicy you like your wings)
parsley or cilantro to garnish

Directions:
Marinate your drumsticks in sauce for as little as 30 minutes or as long as 8 hours.  Preheat oven to 425 degrees.  Place chicken on a broiler pan coated in non-stick spray.  Place chicken in oven.  While chicken is cooking pour excess marinade in a small sauce pan over medium high heat.  Bring to a boil and cook until reduced (5 minutes) then remove from heat.  After chicken has been in the oven for about 10 minutes baste with reduced sauce.  Turn every 5 minutes and baste.  Continue to cook until they look like the ones above (takes about 25 minutes total).  Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro.



Yummmm!  Enjoy!
