    These were so easy to do. They were the rave of the party. Thanks Giada for a good one.

    I've made this recipe a couple times, and it is so yummy! Make sure you buy the small drummettes and not the chicken drumsticks because I thought the drumstick were far too big, and I loved how sweet and well coated the smaller drummettes got. I wouldn't change a single thing on this recipe.

    I took this dish to a picnic a couple of days ago. There was nothing left to bring home. It is very eye-appealing and stands out from other dishes because of the sesame seeds and parsley over the top. As far as taste, I made a few notes. I will make the sauce less sweet next time. I think I will greatly reduce the honey, reducing the volume of the sauce, since there was a lot left over anyway. I will increase the soy sauce a little because I felt my dish could use more salt, and I will crush the garlic cloves and rub the chicken with them to infuse more garlic flavor. Even though I marinated my dish overnight, the garlic flavor was too subtle for my taste.

    I also used a tip from Guy and made slits in the meaty part of each piece before baking to make them cook more evenly, and I liked how that looked too. The pieces opened up and got kind of crisp on those cut edges.

    The dish was a real success. I'm storing it in my recipe box and will make it often.

    This is one of my favorite recipes, and a family favorite as well. I always cook steamed white rice to go along side it, make extra sauce to put on the rice. It's the best. Thanks Giada!

    So yummy! I did not want to throw this marinade away! Created such a perfect marinade and glaze at the same time. Followed directions to a T and it came out perfect and looked just like the picture! You have to try this!

    "Omg this was so good" my 7 year old daughter helped me cook and she said "mom I didn't think this was gonna be this good because the sauce stuff we put it in(marinade" lol but she had seconds. My boyfriend said It was good and so healthy and he cant wait to try a recipe. Oh and it wasn't to sweet at all.

    I think I would give this dish closer to five than to four stars... I thought this dish LOOKED gorgeous, with the sesame seed garnish and when I stacked them in a circular shape around the platter like she did in the episode!

    I thought the flavor was also delicious. Great barbeque sauce. And I don't come across too many recipes on how to prepare those big packages of solely chicken drumsticks that I always see in the grocery store.

    The only problem I had was they weren't entirely cooked through in the 35 minutes, so I had to put it back in to get them right. Very delicious, though!

    I also highly recommend Giada's dish called "Roasted Chicken with Balsamic Vinger Dressing"!!

    I loved this recipe. It was incredibly easy and I made it during my lunch break for a potluck. Everyone loved them and enjoyed the flavor of the chicken. It is amazing as I made another chicken drummette recipe as well that I marinated over night and Giada's recipe had more in depth flavor than the other chicken recipe I used. I doubled the recipe and now from the results I wish I would have just made this one for all of the chicken. I plan to use chicken thighs next time for dinner. Very nice and definitely one that will be in my repertiore.
