Growing up in the Midwest, chicken drumsticks were a staple in our household, especially during family gatherings. This honey soy garlic chicken recipe is a delightful twist on the classic, bringing a sweet and savory Asian-inspired flavor to the table. It’s perfect for a busy weeknight dinner or a weekend meal prep, and the marinade does most of the work for you. Plus, who can resist that glossy glaze and perfectly charred edges? It’s a dish that feels both comforting and a little bit special, all at the same time.
These honey soy garlic chicken drumsticks pair beautifully with a side of steamed jasmine rice or fluffy mashed potatoes for a heartier meal. For a lighter option, consider serving them with a crisp green salad or roasted vegetables like broccoli or asparagus. The sweet and savory notes of the chicken complement these sides perfectly, making for a well-rounded dinner that everyone in the family will enjoy.
