Honey Chicken Drumsticks with Pumpkin Ragout

Step-by-step method

Let’s cook

At a glance

The whole dish comes together smoothly with just a few hands-on cooking moments, making it a surprisingly quick weeknight dinner with impressive results.

Marinade

Melt the honey until it's as runny as possible. Mix it with a little oil (about 6 tablespoons of oil to 2 tablespoons of honey), then season with salt, pepper and garlic. Coat the chicken drumsticks in this marinade. Ideally, let them rest in the fridge overnight.
