    Ingredients
    Serves 4
    QuantityIngredientAdd
    Zest and juice of 1 orange
    ⅓ c. Hy-Vee honey
    2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
    1 clove(s) garlic, crushed
    ¼ tsp. Hy-Vee salt

    3. Bake drumsticks 40 to 45 minutes or until internal temperature of chicken reaches 165 degrees.
    4. Garnish chicken with parsley before serving.
