Our Farms & Suppliers  

Our super organic chicken farmer, Ross, is based in the hills of Honiton, Devon on a family-run well-fed farm supplying some of the finest organic poultry in the country. The chickens are reared in small flocks with open fields to roam and forage, where they can enjoy a peaceful and happy life, scratching and pecking for their own tasty treats. In addition, they are fed a 100% organic diet and kept cosy at night in warm shelters, free from the routine use of antibiotics. With more than 40 years of animal welfare experience and a Soil Association certification, you can really taste the difference with these organic chickens. Because they are slow-grown and well fed, our chickens are meaty, perfect for family meals. The organic chicken wings and succulent, tasty and great to keep cooked in the fridge for a healthy snack!

Honey Garlic Chicken Drumsticks Recipe

Ingredients:

• 8 chicken drumsticks
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar or white wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish, optional)
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or green onions (for garnish, optional)

Instructions:

1. Prepare Drumsticks:

   • Pat Dry: Pat the chicken drumsticks dry with paper towels to ensure the skin crisps up nicely.
   • Season: Rub the drumsticks with olive oil, then season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

2. Prepare the Glaze:

   • Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, minced ginger, rice vinegar, Dijon mustard, and a bit of black pepper.

3. Bake the Chicken:

   • Arrange Drumsticks: Place the seasoned chicken drumsticks on a baking tray lined with parchment paper or foil.
   • Glaze: Brush a generous amount of the honey garlic glaze over the drumsticks.
   • Bake: Roast in the preheated oven at 200°C (180°C fan)/400°F/Gas Mark 6 for 35-45 minutes, or until the drumsticks are cooked through and the skin is caramelized and crispy. The internal temperature should reach 75°C (165°F). You may want to turn the drumsticks halfway through cooking and brush with more glaze for even coverage.

4. Caramelize (Optional):

   • Broil: If you prefer a deeper caramelization, switch your oven to broil for the last 5 minutes of cooking, keeping a close eye to avoid burning.

5. Serve:

   • Garnish: Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped fresh parsley or green onions over the drumsticks before serving.
   • Accompaniments: Serve with steamed rice, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
6. Enjoy: This honey garlic chicken drumsticks recipe provides a delightful blend of sweet and savoury flavours, with a sticky glaze that’s sure to please everyone at your table.
