Tangy Chicken Drumsticks

 "A heads up to those using this as a main dish for adults. The serving size listed is misleading. A serving size should be at least 2-3 legs per person and that's even with side veggies and bread. This is much like a recipe my mom made up when I was a kid. To follow her version more closely, I added ginger slices and a lot more garlic. This makes it more flavorful and more Chinese-style. I boiled cauliflower and cabbage on the side and they both go well dressed with the extra sauce from the chicken. " - valopy

    I made this for Father's Day dinner and my dad was upset I didn't have more chicken so good! I did however cook it on low heat for 2hours and it was falling off the bone just how my family likes it!

    I added some ginger powder to taste and slightly less ketchup. I also cooked it in a turbo broiler... it took about 50 minutes and i rotated it half way through. Turned out great.

    Family loved this chicken mostly due to sauce. They never get excited about chicken but enjoyed this dish very much.
