Ingredients

• 2 lbs chicken drumsticks
• 1/4 cup Caribbean jerk seasoning
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh cilantro for garnish

Directions

1. In a large bowl, combine the Caribbean jerk seasoning, maple syrup, soy sauce, lime juice, vegetable oil, minced garlic, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
2. Add the chicken drumsticks to the marinade and toss them until they are fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for maximum flavor.
3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off.
4. Grill the chicken drumsticks for about 15-20 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Baste the chicken with the remaining marinade while grilling.
5. Once the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char on the outside, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
6. Serve the Caribbean-Canadian glazed chicken hot, garnished with fresh cilantro. Enjoy!
