INGREDIENTS:
  • 4-6 pieces chicken drumsticks or 3 chicken leg quarters
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup honey or blue agave syrup
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1 tbsp lemon or calamansi juice
​
 
​HOW TO PREPARE:
  • In a small bowl, combine all sauce ingredients together. Set aside.
  • Make a few slits on the chicken legs. (This makes the sauce sink in the meat).
  • Place the chicken legs in a zip bag. Add the sauce.
  • Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour or overnight.
  • Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Transfer the marinated chicken legs into the baking pan or tray lined with foil.   Lining with foil helps with easy clean up. :)
  • Bake for 400 deg F for 45 minutes.
  • Increase the temperature to 425 deg F and bake for another 15 minutes.
  • Spoon the caramelized sauce over the chicken and broil for 2-5 minutes on each side.
  • (Keep an eye on the chicken as broiling easily burns any baked item.)
  • Remove from oven and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  • Enjoy your Sweet Sesame Chicken!
