I have been cooking up a storm lately. It seems the boys love for me to cook and it does make the house feel really homey. A lot of the gals from the Church are really great homemakers, they sew, cook, plan their meals, budget their meals and even cook for one another. What an example to me! The only thing is........... it seems like you start running out of things to cook but thanks to Priscilla Venegas for sharing a link with us on face book. It is called tastespotting.com. This is where I got the recipe below from. I haven't tried it but I plan on it soon. Just wanted to share this link and recipe.
Happy Cooking!!!
Sticky Honey Lemon Chicken
(adapted from Greedy Gourmet)
8 chicken drumsticks
3 tbsp. olive oil
1-2 cloves garlic, minced
1/3 cup honey
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 lemon, sliced
splash of red wine vinegar
2-3 sprigs lemon-thyme
salt & pepper to taste
Directions
In a large skillet, heat olive oil on medium-high, to that add the garlic and heat till fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Then add the honey and soy sauce and bring to a slight boil; add lemon slices and vinegar. Turn down heat and simmer for 3-5 minutes. Put entire lemon-thyme sprigs into sauce and continue simmering 5-10 more minutes.
While the sauce is simmering, hand the chicken to your husband so he can begin grilling it on med-high heat, turning every few minutes to cook through.
Now back to the sauce, turn off the heat and let sauce cool a bit. Taste test for salt and pepper additions. If sauce is too thick once it’s cooled, add a little hot water to thin it out. It should be a thick consistency to baste onto chicken & stay, but not so thick that it only sticks to your brush. Remove the lemon slices and lemon-thyme sprigs remnants.
Once your chicken is cooked through, turn down the heat and begin basting the honey-lemon sauce onto the chicken, turning the chicken as necessary to get all sides. Let the heat help adhere the sauce to the chicken for a few minutes. Transfer chicken to a platter, continue basting with leftover sauce and garnish with lemon-thyme. Enjoy with sticky fingers!
