Hey Keller Family! I created this blog for all of us to add all of our yummy recipes, and have a central location for them. I know I am always calling back and forth to get a recipe because I lose the paper I've written it on. So here's my solution! A printed recipe book would be outdated quickly as many of us love to find new recipes to try. Be sure to label what your recipe is (main dish, dessert, side, etc) so it will be easier for others to find. So start adding recipes!

Asian Glazed Drumsticks

Servings: 4 • Serving Size: 2 drumsticks • Old Points: 5 pts • Points+: 5 pts
Calories: 213 • Fat: 4.7 g • Protein: 27.5 g • Carb: 12.7 g • Fiber: 0.4 g

•8 medium chicken drumsticks, skin removed (I use boneless, skinless chicken thighs)
•olive oil spray
•1 cup water
•1 tbsp Sriracha hot sauce (more or less to taste)
•1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
•1/2 cup soy sauce
•4 tsp agave nectar (or sugar)
•3 cloves garlic, crushed
•1 tsp ginger, grated
•2 tbsp chives or scallions, chopped
•1 tsp sesame seeds

In a heavy large saucepan, brown chicken on high for 3-4 minutes with a little spray oil. Add water, balsamic, soy sauce, agave, garlic, ginger, hot sauce and cook on high until liquid comes to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered for about 20 minutes. Remove cover and bring heat to high, allowing sauce to reduce down, about 8-10 minutes, until it becomes a thick glaze, turning chicken occasionally. (Keep an eye on glaze, you don't want it to burn when it start becoming thick) Transfer chicken to a platter and pour glaze on top. Top with chives and sesame seeds and serve.  Serve with rice and broccoli.

We love this recipe, it is super yummy and great for a week night!   Kim
