Twisted 7 Sticky Drumsticks

Twisted 7 Sticky Drumsticks

I often forget about chicken wings. How good they are, how easy they are to prepare, and how delicious they can be. But enough is enough! Chicken wings are a cheap choice, and can be ultra delicious. This recipe features Twisted 7 Asian spice blend, loaded with fennel, star anise, and Vietnamese cinnamon. Delicious on roasted veggies, stir fry, and -you guessed it- chicken wings. Make ahead to to allow the wings to marinade, pop them in the oven, and you're done! 

 

Ingredients:

  • 1/s cup honey, warmed
  • 16 chicken drumsticks (skin on or removed as you prefer)
  • 1 teaspoon Twisted 7 Asian spice blend
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 1 tablespoon orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce (I used sodium reduced)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • green onions, chopped, for garnish

Method:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.  Combine all ingredients except drumsticks & sesame seeds. Marinate chicken for 2 hours.

Remove chicken from marinade and reserve the marinade for basting. Place chicken in a single layer in a casserole dish lined with parchment paper; baste with reserved marinade and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Bake for 40 minutes, basting again after 20 minutes. Garnish with green onion and enjoy!
