Serves: 3
Ingredients
⅔ cup olive oil
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
4 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon paprika
½ teaspoon kosher salt
a few twists of freshly ground black pepper
1 clove minced garlic
2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
6 to 8 chicken drumsticks
¼ cup pomegranate molasses, warmed
Instructions
Place all ingredients except chicken and pomegranate molasses in a mixing bowl. Blend well.
Pat the chicken pieces dry and put into marinade. You can do this in wide glass bowl or in a Ziploc bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours. When you have about 20 minutes of marination remaining, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
After the chicken has marinated, place on lined baking sheet and cook for about 40 minutes, until juices run clear. Do not crowd the chicken; you may need to use two baking sheets.
When done, brush chicken with the warm pomegranate molasses.
