drumsticks

Chicken drumsticks mixed with a honey, soy, garlic and sriracha sauce and then baked for an hour to bring you a fuss-free meal the whole family will love!

Oh hey guys! Just wanted to share these life changing chicken drumsticks with you! Life changing, eh maybe a stretch but they will sure change the way you think about homemade chicken dinners! Because this one’s a winner winner!

I have never seen my husband so excited about chicken for dinner before. Ever. The table kind of resembled the scene on The Croods when they fight over that bird for supper! I don’t know how many times in a week we repeat the part about “left-overs, what are those? -Eep “Oh you know when you have so much food there’s some left over.” -Guy Ya, our table was a plate full of bones after this meal thanks to the boys.

This meal could not be any simpler so swat away any thoughts on oh I bet this is a hassle to make.

It goes like this:

1. preheat oven
2. season chicken and place in baking dish
3. mix the sauce together and pour over the chicken
4. stick it in the oven for one hour

Need I say more? It’s glorious!!!

You can definitely serve chicken with a different side such as a ready to eat bagged salad to save on time. I went with the cabbage slaw to use up some leftover cabbage in our fridge from this week's meal plan.
