Sweet Chilli Chicken - a quick simple meal ready in 30 minutes
Whenever we go to Costco, I always grab a tray of chicken drumsticks. They are pretty cheap and because the met is on the bone, the meat stays lovely a moist and really absorbs whatever flavour you add to it.
Of course the skin should always be removed to make it lower in calories and the easiest way I have found to do this, is by gripping the skin from the fattest end with some kitchen paper (make it less slippy) and pulling off the skin in one quick movement.
Sweet Chilli Chicken Drumsticks that use easy simple ingredients which are dairy free and can be made gluten free if you use tamari or coconut aminos
Don't like chicken drumsticks? Then try this Sweet Chilli Chicken with chicken thighs or breast or even pork.
