Ingredients

• 12 pieces Chicken drumsticks
• 0.25 cup Gluten-free soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 0.25 cup Honey
• 0.5 cup Gluten-free ketchup
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, honey, gluten-free ketchup, and brown sugar. Stir well until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.

Step 2

Add the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir to combine.

Step 3

Rinse the chicken drumsticks under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

Step 4

Place the chicken drumsticks in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the prepared barbecue sauce over the drumsticks, making sure each piece is well coated.

Step 5

Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for extra flavor.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 7

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Arrange the marinated drumsticks on the rack in a single layer.

Step 8

Bake the drumsticks in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is sticky and caramelized.

Step 9

Remove from oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy with your favorite gluten-free sides!
