Mustard and Syrup Drumsticks

4-5 Servings ~ 45 min
  • 1 kg chicken drumsticks
  • 4 tbsp golden syrup
  • 3 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp dry mustard
  • 2 tbsp Apple cider vinegar

Delicious is an understatement of how this chicken tasted! It was finger-licking good, down to the bone itself 😀 If you have dogs they will be chewing on those bones for days, just to savour the moment, lol. But seriously, everyone absolutely enjoy themselves. I served this with steamed carrots and green beans, spaghetti and a rich creamy white sauce with parsley garnish. You can serve the chicken with just about anything including rice, potatoes, rolls, a salad… anything.
