Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 8 chicken drumsticks
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup milk
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 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, 1 tablespoon of hot sauce, 1 teaspoon of paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, 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.
- Arrange 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, place the peeled and cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot.
- Add the minced garlic, milk, and butter to the pot with the potatoes. Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the spicy honey glazed baked chicken drumsticks with a generous portion of garlic mashed potatoes. Enjoy!

This dish has evolved over time, with various chefs and home cooks adding their own unique twists.

The side of creamy garlic mashed potatoes complements the spicy sweetness of the chicken, creating a harmonious balance of flavors. This dish is a favorite in many restaurants across the southern region, known for its comforting and satisfying qualities. For the best version of this dish, look for a restaurant that uses high-quality, locally sourced chicken and fresh, aromatic garlic for the mashed potatoes.
