  • 1 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
  • 1/4 cup yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
  • Wash and pat dry the drumsticks. Set aside.In an oven-proof baking dish, which has been very lightly greased, place the chicken drumsticks in a single layer and season with salt and pepper.
  • Lay a sheet of parchment paper onto a baking sheet and place a wire cooling rack on top. Liberally spray the cooling rack with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Lay the chicken drumsticks onto the wire cooling rack. Leave space between each drumstick. Season with half of the salt and half of the ground black pepper.
  • Bake for 35 minutes.
  • In the meantime, whisk together the remaining ingredients and set aside.
  • Once the drumsticks have baked for 35 minutes, remove them from the oven and coat each one in the sauce mixture. Place them back onto the rack and bake for 15 additional minutes.
  • Remove from oven. Garnish and serve!
