Sweet Chili Lime Drumsticks Recipe

Ingredients

For the marinade:
juice and zest from 1 lime
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp smoked paprika
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp hot new mexican chile powder
1/2 - 1 tsp red pepper flakes (vary depending on how spicy you like things)
1/2 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
1/2 tbsp ginger paste
1/2 tbsp garlic paste
1 tbsp dijon mustard
2 tbsp canola oil
6 chicken drumsticks, frenched
kosher salt and freshly cracked

Preparation

Step 1

Place chicken into sealable bag. Pour marinade over chicken. Seal the bag, making sure to remove as much of the air from the bag as possible (think vacuum-sealed!). If necessary, shake up the bag so that the chicken is completely coated with marinade. Refrigerate and marinate for 2 to 12 hours.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

30 minutes before cooking, remove the chicken from the fridge and allow to come to room temperature.

Place chicken on the sheet pan.

Roast the chicken at 400 degrees for 45 minutes, turn the chicken once half way through cooking.

Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
