Glazed chicken drumsticks with rice

The drumsticks come fully cooked and only need warming and glazing, so dinner is done in twenty minutes. The bbq sauce packets give them a sweet char. Serve over rice to catch the glaze and turn a simple protein into a complete plate.

Serves 2. 25 minutes, 10 at the stove.

From your shelf

  • 1 package Tyson fully cooked unbreaded chicken drumsticks with bbq sauce packets

Staples

  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • to taste salt
  • 1 cup rice
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cloves, minced garlic

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and cook for one minute until fragrant.
  2. Place the drumsticks in the skillet and cook for 5 minutes, turning halfway through, until heated through. Pour both bbq sauce packets over the drumsticks and toss to coat, cooking for 2 more minutes until the sauce clings to the meat.
  3. While the drumsticks cook, bring 2 cups water to a boil in a separate pot with a pinch of salt. Stir in 1 cup rice, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.

Note Swap rice with couscous if you prefer; prepare it while the drumsticks glaze. The drumsticks and rice keep covered in the refrigerator for two days. Serve with a sharp green salad or pickled vegetables to cut the sauce's sweetness.
