Crunchy Hawaiian Chicken Legs

by Candace Sampson

The thing I love about this quick weeknight meal is everyone is happy when I put it on the table and the drumsticks are fabulous cold the next day in a lunch box. Two birds…..one stone.

Crunchy Hawaiian Chicken

1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup ketchup
1 tbs. soy sauce
1 tsp. grated ginger
3 lbs. chicken drumsticks
3 cups cornflakes, crushed to crumbs
1 can crushed pineapple

Heat oven to 375F. Line a baking pan with foil. In a large bowl combine honey, ketchup, soy sauce and ginger. Transfer 2 tablespoons of the sauce to a small bowl. Add drumsticks to the large bowl of sauce and toss to coat well. Place cornflake crumbs in a shallow bowl or pie dish, coat drumsticks with crumbs, and place in prepared baking pan. Bake 40 minutes.

Add pineapple to reserved sauce in the small bowl. Serve with baked drumsticks.
