Teriyaki Chicken Drumsticks

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Hi Friends,

The secret to this recipe is definitely the teriyaki sauce! It’s perfect if you can’t consume soy because it’s made with coconut aminos. You honestly can’t tell the difference, because it’s just so good ! You’ll probably want to put this sauce on EVERYTHINGGG.

I prefer to make chicken drumsticks in the oven because that’s how my grandpa taught me years ago. ( Hi Grandpa ) It also gives me time to cook some white rice and sauté some veggies. Feel free to make these in your Air Fryer as well. Please Enjoy!

Love,

Erika
