Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp orange zest
  • 3/4 cup orange juice
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1 tsp chilli powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 large orange
  • 10 chicken drumsticks
  • 1 red onion

Method

Step 1

Preheat oven to about 200°C.

Step 2

Cut up the onion and orange into wedges and set aside.

Step 3

In a bowl mix together the orange juice, zest, honey, pepper, salt and chilli. Whisk the mixture well.

Step 4

Spread the chicken drumsticks out in a non-stick or greased baking dish along with the orange and onion wedges.

Step 5

Pour the marinade on top, turning the drumsticks to coat them well in the marinade.

Step 6
