Simple Chicken Drumsticks

Simple Chicken Drumsticks

by Pam on November 13, 2013

I was in the mood for a simple chicken dinner. I found a package of drumsticks in my freezer and decided to season them very simply, pan cook them for a few minutes, then finish cooking them in the oven. They were so basic to prepare, smelled amazing while they cooked, and tasted great. Sometimes it’s nice to make simple food instead of fancy rubs, marinades, and cooking techniques. I served these drumsticks with Garlic Rice[1] and a delicious chopped salad. The whole meal was a hit with my entire family – I love that.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Heat a large OVEN PROOF skillet, coated in cooking spray, over medium high heat. Pat the chicken down with paper towels to remove any moisture. Sprinkle the sea salt, freshly cracked pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika evenly over both sides of the chicken drumsticks.

Place into the HOT skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes or until golden brown. Flip the chicken over then place into the oven uncovered. Bake for 25 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Remove from the oven and serve. Enjoy.

Cider-Glazed Chicken Drumsticks

Cider-Glazed Chicken Drumsticks

by Pam on October 20, 2013

When I saw the original recipe for this chicken on Cooking Light[1] I decided to make it immediately. I adapted the recipe by using chicken drumsticks instead of cutlets. I simply seasoned them drumsticks then seared them before baking them in the oven. I made an easy sauce of apple cider and mustard. Unfortunately, right as I was serving the chicken, the sauce spilled all over the table. Thankfully, I had glazed with the sauce in the pan before putting it on the serving plate! The drumsticks turned out moist, delicious, and very flavorful! We didn’t even miss the extra sauce. It was a great weeknight meal that paired nicely with the Brown Butter and Pecan Basmati Rice[2] and Roasted Green Beans[3].

Preheat the oven 350 degrees.

Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium high heat. Season the chicken drumsticks evenly with the sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Place into the hot Dutch oven and cook, until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip the chicken drumsticks over and place the uncovered Dutch oven into the preheated oven. Cook for 25-30 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Remove from the oven and place the chicken on a plate then cover loosely with a tin foil tent.

Place the Dutch oven on the stove over medium high heat. Add the apple cider and Dijon mustard then whisk together making sure to scrape up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Whisk, while it boils, until it reduces down a bit and thickens up, about 2-3 minutes. Taste and season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, if needed. Place the drumsticks and their juices back into the Dutch oven and toss to coat the chicken evenly. Place on a platter then serve with additional sauce on the side. Enjoy.

Honey-Soy Chicken Drumsticks

Honey-Soy Chicken Drumsticks

by Pam on October 2, 2013

My son loves Asian food so I went in search of an Asian inspired chicken drumstick recipe. I found one Very Culinary[1] that sounded perfect and it used ingredients I had on hand – I love that. It look minutes to throw the marinade together and the chicken smelled fantastic while it baked. It was a big hit with all of us – the chicken turned out moist, tender, and very flavorful. My son most definitely approved of this dish!

Combine the honey, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger together in a large zip lock bag. Add the chicken drumsticks to the bag and seal. Place into the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with tinfoil then coat with cooking spray.

Lay chicken on the baking sheet. Bake for 35 minutes, or until a cooked through. Brush the remaining marinade over the chicken every 10 minutes.

Sprinkle some fresh cilantro, sesame seeds, and green onions on top and serve with Garlic Rice with Green Onions and Cilantro[2].
