- 500g (18 oz) chicken drumsticks
- 60ml fresh milk
- 60ml honey
- 2 1/2 tbsp mustard powder
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp dried parsley
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
Honey and mustard is a good combination for poultry, especially. This means you can even try this recipe on duck or quail. It requires no marinating time so it’s a quick fix. If you do not have mustard powder you can instead use the mustard paste (60ml) and remove the milk. Let’s get to it.
Quick Instructions
