I have had a picnic in my apartment the past three days in a row. Radishes, cucumber, grapes, apples, almonds, water crackers, baguette, pate, prosciutto, chicken and tons and tons of cheese. Wash down with a bottle or two of wine. Repeat as necessary.
When I think about a picnic, chicken is the first thing that comes to mind. I decided to try a new Deviled Chicken Drumsticks recipe last night. The recipe says it serves 6 as an entree. Umm. This chicken is so good that two of us plowed through it in record time. And it’s insanely easy, only 15 minutes of active cooking time. Can be served hot or cold. This is a real winner.
The ingredients are awfully simple. Get 2 1/2 - 3 pounds of good quality chicken drumsticks. I used D’Artagnan which I bought at the local supermarket. If you haven’t had it, their chicken is nothing short of incredible. It makes a huge difference in any recipe. Pat the drumsticks dry and coat in Dijon mustard. You then coat the drumsticks in a breading that is equal parts panko bread crumbs and parmesan cheese, along with salt, pepper, couple tablespoons of melted butter and a teaspoon of cayenne pepper. You then roast in the oven at 450 degrees for 30 minutes or until the chicken has browned.
It will look exactly like this. Chicken on deck!

1Mmm, it looks great. And I’m sure, that it’s better than KFC
I’ll try to cook it for my girlfriend.
