Balsamic Chicken Drumsticks image

This recipe is courtesy of Giada De Laurentiis. I haven't actually made it, but I work with a young lady who prepared it and brought it to the office. This was so good we looked like some hogs "slopping at the trough" gnawing on those drumsticks and licking our fingers. We were even eating the marinade after all the chicken was gone because we didn't want to waste a drop. If you wanted to serve this as an appetizer you could use the "drumettes" from the chicken wings. The original recipe does not call for salt, but after tasting it I feel it does need some salt so I listed it as an optional ingredient.

These chicken drumsticks were delicious! The chicken was cooked perfectly and the glaze was flavorful. I would definitely make this recipe again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken drumsticks turned out great! The glaze was a bit too thick for my liking, so I would probably thin it out with a little bit of water next time.

These chicken drumsticks were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less balsamic vinegar next time.

These chicken drumsticks were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would cook them for a shorter amount of time next time.
