Sticky Orange Chicken Drumsticks 

Home Vlog, Part 3
​
​The Chicken
• ​8–10 chicken drumsticks
• ​1 tbsp vegetable oil
• ​1 tsp garlic powder
• ​Salt and black pepper (to taste) 
• ​1 tbsp cornstarch (for extra crispiness)
​The Sticky Orange Glaze
• ​1 cup fresh orange juice (about 2–3 oranges)
• ​1 tbsp orange zest (zest before juicing!)
• ​½ cup sugar (or honey for a milder sweetness)
• ​⅓ cup distilled white vinegar (or rice vinegar)
• ​¼ cup soy sauce
• ​2 cloves garlic, minced
• ​1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
• ​½ tsp red chili flakes (optional, for a kick)
• ​Slurry: 1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp water
​Instructions
​1. Roast the Drumsticks
• ​Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). 
• ​Pat the drumsticks completely dry with paper towels 
• ​In a large bowl, toss the drumsticks with the oil, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and dry cornstarch until evenly coated.
• ​Arrange them on the baking tray
• ​Bake for 40–45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the skin is golden and crispy.
​2. Make the Glaze (While chicken bakes)
• ​In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the orange juice, sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, chili flakes, and orange zest.
• ​Bring to a gentle boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
• ​Stir in your cornstarch slurry (the cornstarch/water mix).
• ​Simmer for 2–5 minutes until the sauce thicken. It should look syrupy. Remove from heat.
​3. Combine and Serve
• ​Once the chicken is done, transfer the hot drumsticks into a large clean bowl.
• ​Pour the warm orange sauce over the chicken.
• ​Toss immediately until every drumstick is sticky and coated.
• ​Garnish as you wish :)
