Honey Glazed Baked Chicken Drumsticks with Roasted Vegetables
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 8 chicken drumsticks
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups mixed vegetables (such as carrots, bell peppers, and zucchini), chopped
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup of honey, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, minced garlic, paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Place the chicken drumsticks in a large resealable plastic bag and pour the honey mixture over them. Seal the bag and shake to coat the drumsticks evenly. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Place the marinated drumsticks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the glaze is caramelized.
- While the chicken is baking, prepare the roasted vegetables. In a large bowl, toss the chopped mixed vegetables with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar, dried thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the seasoned vegetables on a separate baking sheet and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Once the chicken and vegetables are done, remove them from the oven. Serve the honey glazed chicken drumsticks with the roasted vegetables on the side. Enjoy!
