I love using the grill during summer especially preparing our dinner. I will just marinate the meat during the day and put it on the grill when Carlos is back from work. Chicken has always been my favorite and I love trying out different kind of flavor each time. For last week I grill these tangy sweet and spicy drumsticks for our dinner. It’s quick and easy and I served it with some green salad.Ingredients :
6 - 8 drumsticks
1 tsp chili powder
1 tbsp chopped fresh garlic
3 tbsp of brown sugar
4 tbsp of balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp paprika
Salt to taste
1. Clean the drumsticks,remove the skin, fat and give a few slit to the meat. Pat it dry with a paper towel.2. In a mixing bowl, combined chili powder, garlic, brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, paprika and salt. Mix well and marinate the drumsticks for at least 2 – 3 hours.
3. Grill drumsticks over medium heat, with the grill covered. Grill for 30 to 40 minutes, turning occasionally until juices run clear and meat is cooked. Serve with some green salad.

ReplyDeleteHi Gert,

ReplyDeleteElin, I like to marinate my meat with balsamic vinegar as it gives a nice color and also tenderized the meat too.
ReplyDeleteKitchen corner, thank you.
Cindy, you can always add any spices you like to your chicken.
Leemei, sometimes I just throw in anything I can lay my hand on into my meat :)
Zoe, thank you so much for the recipe. I will try it out soon.
Nina, hope you like this recipe.
LCOM, thank you. I think balsamic vinegar can be kept for a long long time. A good balsamic just gets better as it ages. My big bottle of balsamic last me a few months as we used it a lot in our salad and also as marinate.
Maybelles, yea I like using my grill in summmer. Is too warm to cook inside the house :)
Yati, thanks for trying this out. Great idea to some in some fresh herbs :)
ReplyDeleteDeborah, yes it is :)
