When it comes to bone-in chicken, there is no denying that I love me some chicken legs! I think there's nothing better than a drumstick, with its own "handle" and no need for forks! So when I come across recipes for new ways to cook up chicken drumsticks, I am going to try it!
Tonight's dinner was honey-lime drumsticks (Cooking Light again!) and ready in under 30 minutes! While the name of the recipe might make you think that honey and lime would be the most forward flavors, I think the ginger and soy sauce helped make this meal as good as it was! The legs are started off on the stove top, with a good brown on all sides and then the sauce is added and it's all thrown in the oven to finish cooking for about 15 minutes. While the chicken was finishing, I had enough time to cook up a box of truffle mac n cheese that went perfectly with the chicken! After a long week of work and ready for the weekend, this was a dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner! Here is the recipe: https://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/honey-lime-drumsticks-snow-peas-brown-rice (full disclosure, I did not make the brown rice and peas!)
