With the cold weather setting in I’ve been looking to add some new quick, easy and affordable recipes<\/strong> to my winter menu. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We all need a repertoire of fail-safe meals that we know we can throw together in around 30 minutes<\/strong> on a busy evening. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These Sweet & Sticky Chilli Chicken Drumsticks<\/strong> are a new favourite in my house. They’ll be making lots of appearances on our dinner table over the coming months!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I used to buy pre-marinated chicken drumsticks from the supermarket but when I started to actually read the ingredients lists I was shocked to discover the amount of sugar that some of them contained. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But this homemade marinade <\/strong>is sweetened only by honey and literally takes just a couple of minute to throw together. And with ingredients that you probably already have in your cupboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s no secret that kids love messy food so they are sure to enjoy getting stuck into these drumsticks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marinade<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I use one tablespoon of chilli sauce in my marinade but you can alter that depending on your family’s tastes, or even leave it out altogether.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you prefer the skin removed from your chicken then you can do this before you add the marinade. This recipe works just as well with chicken thighs too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To Serve With The Drumsticks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I serve these drumsticks with a chopped vegetable salad (julienne carrots and courgette, red pepper, red cabbage, kale and spring onion) but as it starts to get colder I will probably serve it with mixed veg fried rice or quinoa. Mmmmm… finger licking good!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
