A delightful chicken recipe featuring a tangy citrus glaze and aromatic herbs, perfect for a flavorful dinner.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Preheating ensures even cooking and helps achieve a crispy skin.
In a small saucepan, combine the marmalade, soy sauce, minced garlic, thyme leaves, and black pepper.
Stir the mixture continuously to prevent sticking or burning.
Heat the mixture over low heat until it is well combined and slightly thickened.
Allow the glaze to cool slightly before using it to avoid cooking the chicken prematurely.
Place the chicken drumsticks in a large bowl and pour the glaze over them, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Let the chicken marinate for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Arrange a wire rack over a roasting pan and add a cup of water to the pan.
The water in the pan helps keep the chicken moist during baking.
Place the marinated chicken on the wire rack and bake for 35 minutes, basting with the glaze every 10 minutes.
Basting frequently ensures the chicken develops a rich, caramelized glaze.
Serve the chicken hot, garnished with additional thyme sprigs if desired.
Pair with a fresh salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
