Tips:
- Use fresh corn flakes for the best results. Stale corn flakes will not provide the same crispy texture.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- Be careful not to overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check if the chicken is cooked by piercing it with a fork. If the juices run clear, the chicken is cooked.
- Serve the chicken drumsticks immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or coleslaw.
Conclusion:
Corn Flake Drumsticks are a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for any occasion. The buttermilk marinade helps to keep the chicken moist and flavorful, while the corn flake coating gives it a crispy texture. These drumsticks are sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy way to cook chicken, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
