Grilled Maple Dijon and Chili Chicken Drumsticks
Ingredients:
- 12 chicken drumsticks
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions:
Mix the chili powder, soy sauce, paprika, salt, and pepper with a whisk in a bowl with the maple syrup and Dijon mustard
Put the chicken drumsticks in a shallow dish or a plastic bag that can be closed again
Making sure the drumsticks are well covered, pour half of the marinade over them
Save the rest of the marinade to use as a basting sauce
For the best flavor, marinate the chicken in the fridge for at least two hours or overnight
Warm up the grill over medium-high heat
Take the drumsticks out of the marinade and let the extra run off
Use olive oil to coat the drumsticks so they don't stick to the grill
Put the drumsticks on a grill that has already been heated up
Cook for 20 to 25 minutes, turning the chicken every now and then, until it is fully cooked and has a nice char
For extra flavor, baste the drumsticks with the marinade you saved for the last 10 minutes of cooking
Take the drumsticks off the grill when they are fully cooked and have a little char on them
Let them rest for a few minutes before serving
If you want, you can serve it hot with chopped fresh cilantro or green onions on top
