Gordon Ramsay’s Sticky Baked Chicken Drumsticks

This delicious recipe comes from the Chef’s book, Gordon Ramsay’s Healthy Appetite. Gordon also cooked this dish on The Rachael Ray show in front of a live audience, teaching Rachael a thing or two about cooking. ^[1]

These drumsticks are super easy to prepare and cook, so don’t hesitate to whip up a batch for dinner or company. Gordon says they taste just as good the next day, so you might want to double or triple the recipe if you like left-overs.

Ingredients for Chicken:

Chicken Drumsticks, 10
Olive Oil
Sea Salt
Black Pepper

Ingredients for Glaze:

Rice Wine Vinegar, 3 Tsp
Lemon Juice, from 1 1/2 lemons
Fish Sauce, 3 Tbsp
Honey, 6 Tbsp
Sesame Oil, 4 tsp
Soy Sauce, 4 tsp

Cooking Instructions:

Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat drumsticks with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Arrange drumsticks in a single layer in a casserole dish, and bake for about 20 minutes. Prepare the chicken glaze while the drumsticks are cooking. Making the glaze itself is super easy. Just mix all of the glaze ingredients together, and it’s prepared!

Remove the Chicken Drumsticks from the oven after about 20 minutes and coat with the glaze. Return to oven and bake for another 20-30 minutes until nicely browned. Make sure to turn the chicken a few times during this part of the cooking.

Remove from oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy.

Oven-Fried Buttermilk-Mustard Chicken Thighs with Panko

by Pam on September 12, 2012

What a mouthful that title is! I found this recipe on Myrecipes^[1] and couldn’t wait to make it. This chicken was VERY simple to make and was delicious to my whole family. The buttermilk-mustard marinade made the meat so tender on the inside while the panko made it perfectly crispy on the outside. I adapted the recipe to work with what I had on hand and I loved how it turned out. I served this “fried” chicken with rice and green beans with almonds for a tasty and healthy meal.

Combine the buttermilk, Dijon, and honey together in a large ziplock bag. Mix until well combined then add the trimmed chicken thighs. Seal and place into the refrigerator for 4-24 hours.

Layer a baking sheet with tin foil then place two baking racks on top of the baking sheet. This will allow the chicken to “air bake” so you don’t have to flip the meat over while cooking. Combine the panko and parmesan cheese together on a large plate, mix well. Dredge both sides of each chicken thigh into the panko mixture then place the chicken thighs on top of the baking rack. Place the entire baking sheet into the refrigerator for 30 minutes. This step helps keep the panko on the chicken so don’t skip it!

Preheat the oven to 425. Remove the chicken from the refrigerator while the oven pre-heats. Place the chicken into the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear. Remove from the oven and let the meat rest for 4-5 minutes before serving. Enjoy.

Skinny Buffalo Chicken Potato Skins

What’s football without the appetizers. These potato skins are stuffed with shredded buffalo chicken breast made in the crock pot, then topped with melted cheese, blue cheese dressing, carrots and celery – they are seriously delicious!

Remember these crock pot buffalo chicken lettuce wraps^[1]? Same chicken, only this time I stuffed them in potato skins and topped them with cheese. So good!

You can make the chicken, blue cheese dressing and potatoes ahead, then when you’re ready to serve your guests assemble them and pop them in the oven! Double or triple it for more servings.

They even make a great meal, I had 3 for lunch and it totaled 7 points plus and I was a happy camper. Enjoy!

Servings: 12 • Size: 1 potato skin, loaded • Old Points: 2 pts • Points+: 2 pt
Calories: 82 • Fat: 2 g • Carb: 7 g • Fiber: 1 g • Protein: 8 g • Sugar: 0.5 g
Sodium: 110 mg

Ingredients:

For the chicken:

12 oz boneless skinless chicken breast (or tenderloins)
1 celery stalk
1/2 onion
1 clove garlic
16 oz fat free low sodium chicken broth
1/3 cup hot cayenne pepper sauce (I used Frank’s)

For the toppings:

12 tbsp reduced fat shredded cheese
1/2 cup carrots, cut into 2-inch matchsticks
1 large celery stalks, cut into 2-inch matchsticks
1/4 cup Skinny Blue Cheese Dressing^[2]

Directions:

In a crock pot, combine chicken, onions, celery stalk, garlic and broth (enough to cover your chicken, use water if the can of broth isn’t enough). Cover and cook on HIGH 4 hours or LOW 6 hours.

Remove the chicken from pot, reserve 1/2 cup broth and discard the rest (or save for other recipes). Shred the chicken with two forks, return to the slow cooker with the 1/2 cup of the broth and the hot sauce; Cook on HIGH for an additional 30 minutes. Makes 1 1/2 cups chicken.

Meanwhile, pierce potato with a fork a few times all around. Place in microwave and cook on high about 5 minutes per potato; set aside to cool. Cut potatoes in half horizontally. Scoop out potatoes (I save the extra potato to make skinny garlic mashed potatoes the next day) leaving about 1/4 inch thick wall, skins will weigh about 1 oz each.

Heat oven to 450°. Lightly spray potato skins on both sides with oil and place a foil lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper and bake 10 minutes.

Remove from the oven, add 2 tablespoons of chicken meat filling into each potato skin, top with 1 tbsp shredded cheese and bake 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Top each with 1 tsp blue cheese dressing, shredded carrots and celery and start eating!
