Thai Sweet 'n' Sour Drumsticks

Makes 10-12 servings.

I adapted this recipe from a news clipping I found several years ago. I've tried it before and enjoyed it very much.

Ingredients:
1 large package of chicken drumsticks (about 16)
Ingredients for marinade:
1/2 C. honey
1 tsp. worcestershire sauce
zest of two limes
juice of one lime (2 Tbsp.)
2 Tbsp. soy sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp. cilantro leaves, chopped
2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste
1 tsp. coarsely ground black pepper
1 tsp. salt

Directions:
Place marinade ingredients in a small bowl and stir well. Place thawed chicken in a dish and pour 1/2 of marinade over, brush on all sides. Reserve the other half of marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for an hour. Grill drumsticks, brushing with reserved marinade, on low heat until done. Other options would be to bake the chicken in the oven on a foil-covered baking sheet at 400 F degrees for 30 minutes and finish by grilling on the barbecue or, if not using a grill, bake at 400 F degrees in oven for 40 minutes or until done.
