Ingredients
1 lb chicken drumsticks
2 cups plain yogurt
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp garlic salt
2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp ground black pepper
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp onion powder
½ cup cornstarch
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup breadcrumbs
¼ cup cornmeal
vegetable oil
potato fries
barbecue sauce, or ranch, gravy, or any sauce of your choice
Preparation
Combine the brown sugar, garlic salt, chili powder, ground pepper, paprika, and onion powder. Set aside.
Combine the yogurt and 1½ tablespoons of the spice mixture. Mix until evenly incorporated.
Add the chicken into the prepared marinade. Coat each chicken.
Cover and transfer to a chilled area. Allow to marinate for at least for 6 hours, best if overnight.
Preheat the oven to 380 degrees F.
Combine the flour, cornstarch, cornmeal, breadcrumbs, and 1 tablespoon of the spice mixture. Mix until evenly incorporated.
Drain the drumsticks from the yogurt marinade and dab off any excess marinade.
Coat the drumsticks into the breading mixture, shake off any excess, then layer them neatly onto a roasting tray lined with parchment.
Fry the chicken in hot oil for roughly 6 to 8 minutes until golden brown. Arrange neatly onto a roasting tray.
Transfer to the oven, and roast for roughly 30 minutes until the inside of the chicken is cooked.
Before serving, season the chicken with the remaining spice mixture.
Serve with the sauce of your choice and crispy fries. Enjoy!
