12 chicken drumsticks (12)
1 cup Peri Peri sauce (250 mL)

- In a large resealable bag, mix chicken drumsticks with peri peri sauce. Marinade for minimum 1 hr, or overnight in the refrigerator.
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place a wire rack on top. Using tongs, remove drumsticks from marinade and place on wire rack. Discard any remaining marinade from the bag.
