Ingredients
  

  • 1 kg chicken drumsticks 2.2 lb, 8-10 drumsticks
  • salt and pepper
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 Tbsp grainy dijon mustard
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice approx half a lemon, juiced
  • 1 Tbsp seedy jam ie raspberry jam
  • 1-2 tsp Sriracha sauce adjust for heat tolerance
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper

Instructions
 

  • Arrange chicken pieces with most skin facing upwards. Do not crowd in pan. Use a high heat safe baking or roasting pan. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Roast uncovered at 450° for 15 minutes until skin is browning and crisping.
  • Meanwhile, prepare glaze by combining remaining ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer until slightly reduced and thickened.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 350°. Brush half of the glaze over top of chicken pieces. Cover and return to the oven for 20 minutes.
  • Remove foil or lid and brush remaining glaze on top of chicken. Roast uncovered for 10 - 15 more minutes until glaze is caramelizing on top.

Notes

  1. Chicken thighs are an excellent substitute. If thighs are fairly large, add 5 minutes to covered baking time.
  2. Use any variety of mustard and jam, marmalade or pepper jelly for a custom combination.
  3. Adjust amount of Sriracha for heat tolerance.
