Zesty Drumsticks Recipes

Steps:

• Combine beer, mustard, garlic, pepper flakes, salt, and pepper in a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Add chicken drumsticks; turn to coat evenly. Seal bag, squeezing out all the air.
• Let chicken marinate in the refrigerator, at least 2 hours and preferably overnight.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place drumsticks and sauce into a baking dish, discarding the plastic bag.
• Transfer drumsticks and marinade to a baking dish and cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Check chicken and remove cover if desired. Continue to bake until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 15 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Place chicken legs in a Ziploc bag or 2. Add dressing to bag and shake. Place in refrigerator for 4 hours. Remember to rotate chicken a couple of times.
• In another Ziploc bag, place flour, salt and pepper and shake to mix. I made 8 drumsticks at a time. Place 8 drumsticks in the bag with the flour mixture. Shake.
• Place oil in large skillet. Place the chicken in the skillet. As it gets brown, turn the chicken. All you want is a good brown. The chicken will finish cooking in the oven.
• Place the chicken in a 13 x 9 cake pan. Once those are done do the other eight. When they are all done, place in oven for 35 minutes.

Steps:

• For the sauce: Combine all of the ingredients except the chicken drumsticks in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat about 5 minutes or until bubbly, stirring occasionally to melt the jelly. Remove skin from chicken, if desired. Rinse chicken;pat dry.
• Grill chicken on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 35 to 45 minutes or until chicken is tender and no longer pink, turning once halfway through grilling time and brushing with sauce frequently during the last 10 minutes of grilling.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients, except sesame seeds, together and pour into a large resealable storage bag, with chicken, to marinate. Refrigerate at least one hour, but overnight is preferable.
• Position an oven rack 8 to 10 inches from broiler and preheat broiler. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with heavy duty foil. Tranfer drumsticks and marinade to the sheet and broil, turning occasionally, for 25 minutes, or until chicken is cookemarinade has formed a glaze. Make sure to watch closely so chicken does not burn. Sprinkle sesame seeds over chicken and serve.
