Description

Tender, fall-off-the-bone chicken drumsticks with a rich, savory glaze. Seared for flavor and slow-cooked for maximum tenderness.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 chicken drumsticks
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear drumsticks on all sides until golden brown.
  2. Whisk soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, paprika, and minced garlic in a bowl.
  3. Place seared chicken in the slow cooker and pour the sauce mixture over the top.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours until the meat is tender.
  5. Remove chicken and simmer the remaining liquid in a saucepan until it thickens into a glaze.
  6. Coat the chicken in the reduced glaze and serve immediately.
