INGREDIENTS
Drumsticks:
1 tsp. WFF Granulated Garlic
½ Cup Tangerine or Orange Juice
2 Tbsp. Soy Sauce
2 Tbsp. Canola Oil

LET'S GET COOKING!
Rinse and pat dry the chicken. Place in a glass bowl. Add Spicy Mojo Seasoning, Granulated Garlic, juice, soy sauce, canola oil, salt and pepper. Marinate for at least 15 minutes. (Marinating longer will increase flavor).
Preheat oven to 450°F. Spray a baking pan with cooking oil spray and place drumsticks in one layer. Do not crowd in pan. Discard leftover marinade in bowl.
Roast drumsticks for 10 minutes. Lower the temperature to 350°F and continue roasting while preparing glaze.
In a small saucepan, whisk together the marmalade, juice, rice vinegary, soy sauce, and honey. Cook over medium heat for 3 minutes.
Pull the chicken out of oven and using a brush, baste with glaze mixture. Return to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes. Repeat basting the chicken with the remaining mixture. Return to the oven and bake for 10 additional minutes.*
Serve with Dried Mandarins, or any dried citrus, as garnish.
*USDA recommends cooking poultry to a minimum internal temperature of 165°F.
