Ramsay's Sticky Chicken Drumsticks created by Michelle Berteig

Watched Gordon Ramsay make these on Rachael Ray and they looked so good I had to try them - and they rocked! It's from his Healthy Appetite cookbook and they're a regular in my rotation - as soon as drumsticks are on sale, we have them for dinner! Great leftover - if there is any.

ingredients

olive oil, to drizzle
10 chicken drumsticks
sea salt and black pepper
GLAZE
6 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons fish sauce
4 teaspoons soy sauce
1 ¹⁄₂ lemons, juiced
3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
4 teaspoons sesame oil

directions

Heat the oven to 400°F Lightly oil a large baking dish.
Season the drumsticks with salt and pepper and arrange in the dish in a single layer. Drizzle over a little olive oil and bake in the hot oven for 20 minutes.
Prepare the glaze in the meantime. Mix all the ingredients together in a small bowl until evenly combined.
Take the chicken out of the oven and pour over the glaze, to coat each drumstick.
Return to the oven and bake for another 20 to 30 minutes, turning several times, until the chicken is tender and nicely glazed. (I do it about every 5 minutes).
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.

I was very disappointed with this recipe. The fish sauce was just too overwhelming, and the glaze was just too watery and didn't stick to the chicken. I smothered the chicken with hot sauce just so I could eat it and it wouldn't go to waste. My daughter didn't care for it either. Better luck next time Gordon. This recipe won't be staying in my recipe file.

This recipe was a hit with my family. They loved the flavor of the chicken. I had some liquid still in the bottom of the pan but most of the chicken browned nicely. Would post a photo, but can't get it to load from my phone. Thank you for posting. Made for ZWT9

I made this today. Sorry to say, no offense, Chef Ramsay... but the glaze does not stick. I even tried grilling the legs while basting constantly. The flavor is really good, but the recipe needs some tweeks. I think next time I will try my friends idea of either doing a slurry to add to it, or reducing it futher. Thanks for a flavorful dish, but it was just a bit off for me. (Made for ZWT9)

As a previous reviewer posted, the glaze was watery and did not stick to the chicken at all. I wouldn't call it a glaze. I followed the recipe exactly as written. The taste was fantastic, though! There was to be a better way to prepare this, perhaps boil down the glaze to reduce the volume so it is more thick and sticky before applying it to the chicken? I will experiment with this, Make for Pink Panthers on the Prowl for ZWT9.
