1/4 cup honey
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper to make the honey garlic marinade.
Place the chicken drumsticks in a large bowl and pour the honey garlic marinade over them. Toss until the drumsticks are evenly coated.
Arrange the coated drumsticks on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece.
Bake the chicken drumsticks in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the skin is golden brown and crispy, and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the drumsticks from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve the Honey Garlic Baked Chicken Drumsticks hot with your favorite sides.
