Ingredients
Chicken drummettes
2 lbs (24 pieces, skin removed)
Honey
2 tablespoons
Ketchup
2 tablespoons
Red pepper sauce
1 tablespoon
Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon
Paprika
1 teaspoon
Ranch dressing
2/3 cup (for serving)
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 15 1/2 x 10 1/2-inch jelly roll pan by lining it with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
2
Carefully remove the skin from the chicken drummettes and place them in a large resealable plastic bag.
3
In a small bowl, combine honey, ketchup, red pepper sauce, and Worcestershire sauce into a smooth mixture. Pour the marinade over the chicken, seal the bag tightly, and ensure all the drummettes are well-coated.
4
Refrigerate the marinated chicken for at least 15 minutes, or ideally up to 24 hours, for maximum flavor. Occasionally turn the bag to redistribute the marinade.
5
Once marinated, arrange the chicken drummettes in a single layer on the prepared jelly roll pan. Sprinkle evenly with paprika to enhance both flavor and color.
6
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven uncovered for approximately 30 minutes. The wings should be crispy and the juices should run clear when the thickest pieces are cut. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (75 degrees C) for proper doneness.

Serve immediately with ranch dressing on the side for dipping. Enjoy your homemade crispy chicken drummettes!
