We tried this out the other night. It was definitely tasty and W really liked it. I have SERIOUS issues with drumsticks. It's just a really weird piece of meat (in my opinion). I would definitely use the marinate again, but maybe on a different cut of chicken. If you like drumsticks, this one's for you:
Ingredients:
3 cloves garlic, crushed
3 Tbsp chopped ginger
1 C chopped scallions (white and green parts)
1 C cilantro
1/4 tsp cayenne
1/3 C honey
1 C coconut milk
1/3 C lime juice, plus 1 tsp grated zest
10 skin on drumsticks
Directions:
Combine all ingredients (except chicken) in blender, puree. Cut 2 slits in each drumstick, marinade in coconut mixture at least 1 hour. Transfer chicken to rack placed on foil-lined baking sheet; season. Bake at 450 for 20 minutes, flip and bake until cooked through, 10 minutes. (Mine definitely took longer than this. I'd say cook 30 minutes, flip for 20 more)
(*I think this recipe is from the Rachel Ray Mag, but I ripped it out and can't remember. So, my apologies if I don't have the proper reference)
For sides I sliced sweet potatoes very thin, seasoned with some EVOO, salt & pepper. Baked at 450 until crisp. Dipped in guacamole and salsa.
We also had broccoli. It was random, but the kids really like it.
