Instructions

In a large bowl, mix together brown sugar, soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, black pepper, and red pepper flakes until the brown sugar is mostly dissolved.

Add the chicken drumsticks into the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 8 hours.

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. Arrange the marinated chicken drumsticks on the baking sheet and reserve the remaining marinade.

Bake for 25 minutes, then brush the drumsticks with the reserved marinade and bake for an additional 20 minutes.

Switch the oven to broil and cook for an additional 5 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
