Baked Chicken Drummies

Submitted by Jubes

"Prepare the marinade in 5 minutes, marinate 2 hours and then into the oven to bake – too easy! For a budget friendly family meal for 4, serve with chips, a simple salad on vegetables on the side. Preparation time does not include the two hours marinating time required. You can use a large Ziploc bag for the marinade to save on washing up if you wish to. This recipe was made using competition ingredients for Dining on a Dollar comp. For a great home-made ponzu sauce - see recipe#487741 #487741 (You could just make up the small amount as used in this recipe) Alternatively, I think a blend of soy sauce and lime juice would work well"

Love the balance of flavours. I made half a batch, but used the full amount of ponzu sauce. Served with baked potatoes, roasted tomatoes and a green salad. Good luck in the contest.

This is a great recipe. I used cut up wings (minature drummies). I love marinate recipes and <br/>Japanese vinegars and sauces. I baked 10 minutes on each side. I served with my Oriental Almond Ponsu Slaw. The mix of the marinate flavor on the meat and the lime of the slaw was<br/>great. Thanks.

We enjoyed the chicken prepared this way. It was quick and easy to make. Made exactly as written, it was tender, juicy and had a mild flavor. It made for a nice meal served with boiled potatoes and spicy corn. Nice use of contest ingredients, good luck in the contest.

Very yummy and easy with good, clear instructions. I was only allowed a nibble off one drumstick as the kids ate them all up. Clearly, they know a good thing when they taste it.
