Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 425°F (220°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray. In a big bowl, mix together the honey, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, balsamic vinegar, water, olive oil, and garlic until everything is well combined. Toss the chicken legs in the sauce, making sure each piece is nicely coated. Arrange the chicken on the baking sheet and sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. Pop it in the oven and bake for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until the juices run clear. If needed, flip the chicken halfway through and cook a bit longer to get that perfect finish.

Storage & leftovers
