Oven-Fried Drumsticks

Submitted by Marz7215

"These drumsticks are coated with panko crumbs, and it gives it a nice crunch. The removal of the skin and the method of cooking (baking) reduces the messy deep-frying and the fat! Published in Woman's Day (May 2008)"

The cook time on this recipe was not correct. I had to cook almost 20 minutes longer than stated in the recipe.

This was lovely chicken. I was out of drumsticks so used two large, skinless chicken breasts. They were crisp, tender, moist, perfectly cooked and extremely flavorful. We enjoyed this quick and easy to make recipe very much. Into my keeper box this goes. Thank you for sharing.
