Sticky Jerk Chicken Drumsticks
These Sticky Jerk Chicken Drumsticks are fiery, glossy and wonderfully easy. A simple honey-and-lime glaze caramelises around the chicken in the oven, creating crisp edges and juicy meat beneath. It gets its bold flavour from our Jerk Seasoning.
🧾 Ingredients
- 10 chicken drumsticks
- 2 tbsp Jerk Seasoning
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 tbsp runny honey
- 1 lime, zest and juice
- 2 garlic cloves, finely grated
- ½ tsp sea salt
- Fresh coriander and lime wedges, to serve
👩🍳 Instructions
- Heat the oven to 210°C/190°C fan/Gas 6 and line a roasting tray.
- Mix the Jerk Seasoning, oil, honey, lime zest, half the lime juice, garlic and salt.
- Coat the drumsticks thoroughly and arrange them in a single layer on the tray.
- Roast for 35–40 minutes, turning once and brushing with the tray juices, until cooked through and sticky.
- Finish with the remaining lime juice, coriander and lime wedges.
