How to Make Honey Garlic Chicken Drumsticks

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Pat 1.5 lbs (approx. 6-8) skinless chicken drumsticks dry with paper towels. Place them in a roasting pan.
3. Bake covered for 60 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F/74°C).
4. While chicken is baking, prepare the sauce: In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup cornstarch and 1/4 cup cold water until smooth.
5. Add 1 cup honey, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 4 cloves minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon grated ginger (optional) to the saucepan.
6. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until thickened (about 2-3 minutes).
7. Remove the chicken from the oven. Drain any excess grease from the roasting pan.
8. Place the cooked chicken drumsticks in a heatproof casserole dish.
9. Pour the honey garlic sauce over the chicken, ensuring each drumstick is coated.
10. Serve immediately or keep warm in a low oven (200°F/93°C) while you finish other dishes.
