Description

Chicken leg quarters are simmered in honey, curry powder, and a little soy sauce for a nice sweet-savory dish to make with rice. It's easy, quick, and budget-friendly.

Ingredients

1/2 cup honey
4 teaspoons dry mustard powder
1 teaspoon curry powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons applesauce
4 chicken leg quarters
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/3 cup water

Directions

1 Mix together the honey, dry mustard powder, curry powder, garlic powder, soy sauce, and applesauce in a bowl until thoroughly combined, and place the chicken legs into the mixture, spooning the honey mixture all over the chicken to coat.
2 Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and place the chicken into the hot skillet, shaking off excess honey mixture. Retain extra honey mixture in bowl. Puncture a few holes in the chicken legs with a sharp meat fork, and brown the bottom sides of the chicken, about 8 minutes. Pour in water, and turn chicken legs over. Cover, and cook until the chicken meat is no longer pink inside and the juices run clear, 15 to 20 more minutes.
3 Drizzle the chicken with the remaining honey-curry mixture, bring to a boil, and spoon the pan drippings over the chicken to serve.
