📝 Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons orange marmalade
• Salt and pepper (to taste)
• 4 chicken drumsticks
• 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
• 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1In a large zip-top bag, combine vinegars, honey, garlic, tamari or coconut aminos, marmalade, salt, and pepper. Add in drumsticks, seal bag, and toss to coat. Stash bag in fridge for 2-3 hours (or overnight) to marinate, rotating bag occasionally.
2. 2When ready to cook, preheat oven to 425°F. Cover a baking sheet in parchment paper. Remove drumsticks from bag and lay on baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
3. 3Meanwhile, pour remaining marinade into a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-10 minutes, or until marinade is thick.
4. 4When drumsticks are finished cooking, preheat broiler. Using a pastry brush, coat drumsticks in reduced marinade. Broil for 3-5 minutes, or until browned and sticked. Flip and repeat with other side.
5. 5Before serving, sprinkle drumsticks with sesame seeds and cilantro.
