This is another super easy to whip up dish that is really lip-smacking, which I’ll bet kids and adults will love – grilled honey soy sauce chicken drummets. In my case, I replaced honey with agave nectar. Agave nectar is a healthier alternative to sugar and honey. It has lower calories, lower GI and has medicinal properties. I use agave nectar in my cooking and even use it as a bread spread or pancake dip. It tastes like maltose and maple syrup.
All you need are:
1) Chicken drummets – I only had 7 in the freezer, thus this recipe is for 7 mini drummets
2) 1/4 cup honey or agave nectar
3) 2-3 tablespoons soy sauce. I only use about 2 tablespoons as this is meant to be a kids’ dish.
4) About 2-3 teaspoons of pepper. I girls love the taste of pepper, so I used more.
5) Sliced garlic (optional)
Method:
After washing the chicken drummets, pat dry with kitchen towel.
Pour honey or agave nectar, soy sauce and pepper onto chicken drummets and mix well. You can keep the chicken drummets in a ziplock bag in the fridge. I did not use a ziplock bag but marinated the drummets in a stainless steel mixing bowl.
Place marinated drummets in fridge for a few hours or even overnight.
Place drummets on a tray lined with baking paper or aluminum foil. The part with thicker skin should face up so that it gets a nice grilled/brown color.
Pre-heat oven at 160 degrees Celsius and grill for 20 minutes or until the drummets skin turn into a nice golden color with a little tinge of burnt on the skin.
If you wish to have garlic, toss in the garlic on top of the drummets about 10 minutes before you turn off the heat.
The drummets tasted exactly like barbequed chicken and my girls gave me a 10/10 rating and A++ for this super-easy and sweat-free dish!  They are already bugging me to cook this dish again and I’ll have to get to the supermarket to get a few punnets of drummets. This time, I’ll make double or triple recipe 😀
