Grilled Honey Mustard Drumsticks

My husband and I have been grilling fools lately.  We've been grilling baked potatoes, Brussels sprouts, burgers, and lotsa chicken.  The boneless chicken breasts (which are my husband's preference when it comes to chicken) have been outrageously priced lately at our local grocery store, so I've started buying more leg quarters, thighs, and drumsticks.

I had some honey mustard, and I knew it would be amazing paired with some grilled chicken.  I was right!  These drumsticks were perfectly delicious!  I used the honey mustard as a marinade and as a basting sauce for this recipe, but it's also amazing as a salad dressing or veggie dip.  It's fab!



Ingredients

• 6 chicken drumsticks
• ½ cup honey
• ½ cup Dijon mustard
• ¼ cup mayonnaise
• ½ tsp kosher salt
• ¼ tsp garlic powder
• ¼ tsp fresh ground pepper

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, dijon mustard, and mayonnaise.
2. Sprinkle the chicken evenly with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder.  Place the chicken into a large Ziploc bag and pour half of the honey mustard sauce into the bag.  Set aside the remaining honey mustard.  Seal the bag and shake it around until all of the chicken is coated.  Refrigerate for at least an hour.
3. Preheat your grill to medium heat.  Grill the chicken for 10-15 minutes, or until juices run clear, turning every 5 minutes to ensure even cooking.  Baste with the reserved honey mustard during the last 5 minutes of cooking.  Keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn!
