Tasty chicken recipe - Drumsticks with a twist

Chicken Drumsticks with Cheese and Garlic
Here's a different easy way to make some tasty chicken drumsticks ideal for the barbeque season. This recipe can be prepared and cooked a day in advance, and makes for great finger food served hot or cold.
Cheesy garlic chicken recipe in 5 steps
This recipe will serve 6 people.
Ingredients:
- 12 chicken drumsticks / skins on
- 1 tbsp (tablespoon) butter
- 125g or 1/2 cup of ricotta cheese
- 1 garlic clove crushed
- 3 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
- 3 tbsp fresh breadcrumbs
- 4 tbsp grated parmesan or pecorino cheese
- salt pepper
- slices of lemon
Step 1
Put a pan over a moderate heat and melt the butter, then fry the garlic in the butter for a minute or so without browning or burning it.
Step 2
Take the pan away from the heat and add the cheeses, breadcrumbs, parsley and salt and pepper. Mix together well.
Step 3
Take the chicken drumsticks, and gently loosen the skin around them. You can do this by sliding your finger under the skin and carefully prying it away from the meat as not to tear it.
Step 4
Pack a tablespoon or so of the cheesy garlic mixture under the loosened skin of the drumsticks. Evenly coat the insides by delicately rubbing the drumstick with your fingers or the back of the spoon.
Step 5
Put the drumsticks on the barbeque and grill untill golden and delicious. Or place all the drumsticks on to a large baking tray/tin and cook in a preheated oven at 190 degrees C or 375 degrees F, for 45 - 50 minutes. You can eat them straight from the oven/barbeque, or have them cold. Try serving them with salad garnished with slices of lemon and enjoy! =)
