I think I got this from skinnytaste.com, but not sure. It was pretty good! Enjoy!

Asian Glazed Drumsticks

8 medium chicken drumsticks, skin removed

olive oil spray

1 c. Water

1Tbsp Sriracha hot sause (more or less, to taste) > can get from Walmart, in Asian food section (bottle with rooster on it)

1/2 c. balsamic vinegar

1/2 c. soy sauce

4 tsp agave nectar (or use sugar) > got this from WM too

3 cloves garlic, crushed

1 tsp ginger, grated

2 Tbsp chives or scallions, chopped

1 tsp sesame seeds

In a heavy large saucepan, brown chicken on high for 3 to 4 mins. with a little spray oil. (I used my wok with Pam.) Add water, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, agave, garlic, ginger, hot sauce and cook on high until liquid comes to a boil. reduce heat to low and simmer, covered for about 20 mins. Remove cover and bring heat to high, allowing sauce to reduce down, about 8 to 10 mins, until it becomes a thick glaze, turning chicken occassionally. Keep an eye on the glaze, you don't want it to burn when it starts becoming thick. Transfer chicken to a platter and pour glaze on top. Top with chives and sesame seeds and serve.

I made 6 drumsticks and through myfitnesspal.com, it calculated out to be 168 cals per piece/15.5 g protein/6.1 g fat/9.2 carbs/5.4 g sugar/827.4 mg sodium.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
