Cajun Drumsticks
This is a great way to eat chicken. It’s a nice combination of spicy and sweet.
Ingredients:
- 6 chicken drumsticks
- 6 tbsp. Cajun spice mix
- 6 tbsp. maple syrup
Pre-heat the oven to 375o.
Start by Frenching the drumsticks. Cut through the skin and tendons about 1 ½ inch from the bottom. I use a serrated steak knife for this. Remove the skin from the lower end and scrape the meat upward with the edge of the knife
.
Wrap the bone end in aluminum foil and thoroughly coat the meat with Cajun spice mix. Place them on an oiled rack in a roasting pan.
Roast for 40 minutes, turning the drumsticks after 20 minutes. Remove and brush the drumsticks with maple syrup and roast for another 10 minutes. Let them cool a bit and serve.
