Last time I made drumsticks, I used a cranberry-orange glaze but I wanted to do something different this time. I still wanted it to be sweet but not as fruity, so I chose a honey/soy glaze with sesame seeds. It came out moist, tender and sweet. Exactly what I wanted.

Honey-Soy glazed Drumsticks
adapted by Martha Stewart
12 drumsticks
1/2 cup honey
2 tablespoon soy sauce
1 garlic cloves, minced
Sesame seeds
salt 'n' peppa
1 Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Season drumsticks with salt and pepper, both sides.
2 Mix honey, soy sauce, garlic cloves, and some sesame seeds in a bowl.
3 Line a shallow roasting pan with aluminum foil and lay the drumsticks in alternating directions in a row. Pour honey mixture over all the chicken and bake about 30-40 minutes, basting every 10 minutes.
4 Once chicken is done, transfer the remaining sauce in the pan to a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Then reduce to a simmer for about 10 minutes until thickened. Serve chicken with sauce.

Wow, this sounds easy, scrumptious and unique - my kind of food.
I especially like how the sauce gave it such a gorgeous glaze. Thank you for that.

honey-soy glaze sounds terrific on the drumsticks!
These look fab, and kudos for doing a spur of the dinner party :) I would be hiding in the closet :D
i think spur-of-the-moment dinner parties are the way to go--no time to get stressed! i love this idea for a dish--simple, straightforward, and delicious!
I can't believe how easy this is! Thanks for the recipe, I will definitely be making this many times. It's such a great jumping off point for all sorts of glazes and flavors!
I'm a last minute kind of girl sometimes too so it's nice that these don't need a long marinade time! Yum!
these have such a 'grab and go' look to them - the glaze sounds so perfect - I will make savoury crepes with what ever I have on hand when I am in a pinch!
boy, that sure sounds easy. love the photos.
These look beautiful and delicious!
And amazingly simple.
These look beyond delicious! Great job Zoe!!!

I actually made drumsticks the other night too, but try as I might I just don't like dark meat. i do love the idea of serving them with polenta though. I might try this glaze on something else.
Everybody loves chicken.I'm sure this was a hit!
What a lovely recipe :-)
Absolutely delicious!! My kind of food!
Whoa, creepy! We are on the same wavelength. I made some drumsticks this past week with a similar glaze. Honey and soy were present, but also hoisin ad chili-garlic sauces. I took a few pictures, so it may make a blog appearance one day. I rather like your version better, though. It's simpler.
These look really delicious! Gorgeous photos!
They're so pretty and glazed...mmmm. Plus, love polenta & green beans with almonds. I may drop by soon. ;)
Mmmm, they look so perfect - my mouth is watering!
What a great glaze. You could use that on many dishes and add to their natural flavor.
The glaze sounds great but I don't like drum sticks. I'm thinking wings instead!
