Recipe: bacon wrapped chicken drumsticks

These are always a winner at barbecues. It helps that they can be prepared in advance, leaving less to worry about when it's barbecue time. Whilst these are bacon wrapped, you can also try pancetta instead, which I find tends to be easier to work with. Oh – and bacon really isn't all that bad providing what you buy is good quality – so there's no reason not to enjoy.

These are a great way to cook up some chicken legs. If you can resist them, they're great to keep in the fridge for a snack too!
Ingredients
  • 8 Chicken Drumsticks
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1 tbsp runny honey
  • 2 tsp curry powder
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • Pinch of Sea Salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 220 C / 425F / Gas mark 8. Yes it's hot, but you like your drumsticks crispy right!?
  2. Slash the drumsticks with a sharp knife – this will allow the flavours to seep well into the meat. In a bowl, mix the lime juice, honey and spices. Rub onto the chicken with your hands to ensure an even coating and spike your hunter gatherer instinct.
  3. Cook for 45 minutes, turning the chicken 2-3 times to cook evenly.
