INGREDIENTS

  • Marinade

    • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
    • 🧂 1/3 cup soy sauce
    • 🍯 1/2 cup honey
    • 🧄 1 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 🧅 1 teaspoon onion powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
    • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    • 1 1/2 teaspoons chili paste (gochujang)
    • 2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives

STEPS

1

Transfer chicken drumsticks into a resealable plastic bag placed over a bowl.

2

Add habanero pepper, rice vinegar, and soy sauce to a blender or blender cup, and blend on high for about 30 seconds. Transfer into a bowl.

3

Add honey, garlic powder, onion powder, chili flakes, cayenne, and chili paste to the bowl and whisk until evenly combined.

4

Pour marinade into the bag with chicken, and carefully massage the outside of the bag until drumsticks are evenly coated. Squeeze out excess air and seal the bag tightly.

5

Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours and up to 10 hours for best results.

6

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Transfer chicken and marinade into a casserole dish, and space drumsticks evenly into a single layer.

7

Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes; remove from the oven and turn chicken pieces over.

8

Continue to bake drumsticks until meat is very tender and beginning to brown, about 45 minutes more; turn or baste drumsticks every 15 minutes.

9

Remove drumsticks to a serving platter and cover loosely with foil. Carefully pour all the liquids from the roasting dish into a saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook sauce until it starts to thicken slightly, about 3 minutes.

10

Spoon sauce over drumsticks. Scatter freshly snipped chives over chicken to serve.
