when got to this recipe I was glad to see one of the stores had drum sticks on sale. knowing that I wasn’t going to really like this recipe I didn't want to put a lot of money into it. so I off I go to the store buy the drum sticks come home, a ten minute drive, open the drum sticks and am met by a revolting smell, that had me jumping back gagging. the meat was spoiled. not exactly the best way to start a recipe I was already not looking forward too. needless to say I did not use that meat. I brought back to the store. after that I didn’t think I could stomach being around drumsticks for a while so I put off making these for a few weeks.
good news is the next meat I bought was good, and I was able to move forward with the recipe.
the coating crisps up in the oven and you have a nice lightly breaded fried chicken effect.
for being something I don’t like it was pretty good I do believe it would have been a bit better if it had more spices in it, such as garlic and onion. but the paprika did do a nice job in adding some flavor.
its probably not something I would make again though I might use it as a base recipe for chicken tenders.
