Glazed Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Drumsticks
Prep Time30 Minutes
Servings6
Cook Time40 Minutes
Ingredients
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp smoked or regular paprika
pinch ground cayenne pepper
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
12 chicken drumsticks
6 long strips of bacon, each cut, widthwise, in half (see Note)
1/4 cup honey
1 Tbsp + 1 tsp Dijon mustard
Directions
- Combine oil, chili powder, paprika, cayenne and black pepper in a bowl large enough to hold the chicken. Add chicken and toss to coat. Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Pull and stretch each half piece of bacon until it’s about 2-inches longer than it originally was. Now stretch and wrap and half piece of bacon around each chicken drumstick. Set chicken, seamed side down, on the baking sheet. Roast drumsticks in the middle of the oven 35 minutes.
- While drumsticks roast, make glaze by combining honey and mustard in a bowl. When drumsticks have roasted 35 minutes, brush each one with some of the glaze. Roast drumsticks 5 to 10 minutes more, or until cooked through (see Options).
Note: Schneiders brand classic cut bacon was used when testing this recipe.
Options: If desired, if the bacon is not crispy enough for you when the chicken is cooked, before removing it from the oven, turn the oven to broil, and broil the top of the chicken two minutes or so, until the bacon becomes crispier.
