A delightful twist on classic honey mustard chicken, these drumsticks are marinated and grilled to perfection for a flavorful and juicy dish.
In a mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, honey, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, lemon juice, and ground black pepper.
Mix the marinade thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined for even flavor distribution.
Add the chicken drumsticks to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated.
Use your hands or a spoon to evenly coat the chicken with the marinade for maximum flavor.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 6 hours for more intense flavor.
Marinating the chicken overnight will enhance the flavor even further.
Preheat the grill to medium heat.
Ensure the grill is clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
Place the marinated drumsticks on the grill and cook, turning every 3 minutes and basting with leftover marinade, until fully cooked, about 15 minutes.
Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F.
Serve the grilled chicken hot, optionally with a side of sweet-chili dip or your favorite sauce.
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for added color and flavor.
