These mini-drumsticks can be served either as an appetizer, as shown, or a main course. But don’t be upset if the kids end up eating them all up as an erev Yom Tov snack.

Ingredients

Drumettes

  • 2–3 pounds drumettes (see note)

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • pinch of coarse black pepper

Flour mixture

  • 2 cups flour

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder

  • pinch of coarse black pepper

Honey Hot Sauce

  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) margarine (use soy-free, if needed)

  • 1/2 cup Gefen Honey

  • 1/3 cup hot sauce

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar

Directions

Coat and Fry

1.

Season drumettes with salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil.

2.

Heat oil for frying in a medium saucepan.

3.

In a small bowl, combine flour and seasoning. Dredge drumettes in the flour. When oil is hot, drop drumettes into the oil and fry until outside is golden and crisp, about 8 to 10 minutes. You do not need to worry about whether they are cooked through, as they will cook in the oven for additional time later. Place drumettes on a paper towel-lined plate.

Prepare the Sauce

1.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the margarine. Stir in the honey, hot sauce, brown sugar, and ketchup. Cook for 7 to 10 minutes, until sauce thickens a bit. Stir in dissolved cornstarch.

2.

Dip drumettes into the sauce and place in a 9- x 13-inch baking pan. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes.

Bake

1.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

2.

Dip drumettes into the sauce and place in a 9- x 13-inch baking pan. Bake for 8–10 minutes.

Notes:

The portion of the wing that’s attached to the main part of the chicken is called the drumette. There’s one main piece of bone in the middle, but there are some joints and cartilage on both ends.

Yes! Just keep in mind the chicken will likely be more juicy

Skip frying? Is it possible to make this recipe without frying, simply putting in oven? Also can use different parts of chicken?

Use smaller parts. And as far as skipping the frying, I would say it will cook if you just bake it, but that is an important component.

I have to say that this recipe turned out great. The chicken was well cooked and yes, very sticky. My husband absolutely enjoyed it and told me that it tastes better than the frozen wings we use to buy and better than, KFC. I give this a 5-star.
