These honey orange glazed chicken drumsticks are always a hit when I make them for parties and Boxing Day dinners because the chicken is always fall-off-the-bone juicy. People love the glaze — they always go for seconds! You may quarter 2 chickens if you aren't able to get legs from your butcher, but I find the legs are juicier and save money. Serve this dish with fragrant rice and dilled carrots or roasted asparagus.
8 large chicken legs
1 tablespoon salt
1 cup honey
1 cup orange juice with pulp
½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
7 sprigs fresh rosemary, finely chopped
2 oranges, zested
2 cloves garlic, minced (Optional)
ground black pepper to taste
