This does not happen often. When it does I blog it. My whole family loved this recipe AND it is a healthy one at that. Yipppee!! I was looking for a drumstick recipe that would not heat up my house. The temp was around 40′ with the humidex (that’s 104′ for Fahrenheit-ers) so I hit my Pinterest page to see what I could make. I was soooo not doing shake and bake… again. I really need to stop buying that stuff.

Loved how it all came together at serving time. I put the rice in the microwave (1 cup rice 2 cups water HIGH for 20 minutes in the corningware, works EVERY time) made the salad while it was cooking. Super easy mid week dinner that the whole family ate. Score!

Here is the recipe I found on Pinterest via Skinny Taste.

Cook time: 30 mins

Total time: 35 mins

Serves: 4

Quick, easy, stovetop and flavorful!

Ingredients

•8 medium chicken drumsticks, skin removed (I used 10)
•olive oil spray (I used my Misto)
•1 cup water
•1 tbsp Sriracha hot sauce (I used my favorite Hot Sauce)
•1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
•1/2 cup soy sauce (I used low sodium soy sauce)
•4 tsp agave nectar (or sugar) (But I used honey)
•3 cloves garlic, crushed
•1 tsp ginger, grated
•2 tbsp chives or scallions, chopped
•1 tsp sesame seeds

Instructions

In a heavy large saucepan, brown chicken on high for 3-4 minutes with a little spray oil.
Add water, balsamic, soy sauce, agave, garlic, ginger, hot sauce and cook on high until liquid comes to a boil.
Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered for about 20 minutes.
Remove cover and bring heat to high, allowing sauce to reduce down, about 8-10 minutes, until it becomes a thick glaze, turning chicken occasionally. (Keep an eye on glaze, you don’t want it to burn when it start becoming thick).
Transfer chicken to a platter and pour glaze on top. Top with chives and sesame seeds and serve.
