Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds of chicken drumsticks
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (low-sodium recommended)
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced (about 3 cloves)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped green onions and sesame seeds for garnish

  • Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and season with salt and pepper. Whisk until well blended.
  • Add chicken drumsticks to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place marinated drumsticks on a baking sheet and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, turning halfway through.
  • Preheat Air Fryer to 375°F (190°C). Arrange drumsticks in a single layer and cook for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway.
  • Reserve some marinade to brush on drumsticks during the last few minutes of cooking for extra flavor.
  • Remove chicken from the oven or Air Fryer, let rest, garnish with green onions and sesame seeds, and serve.
  • Notes

    Succulent Honey Garlic Chicken Drumsticks are prepared in under 90 minutes, featuring a honey-garlic glaze that balances sweetness and savory flavors.
