Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 whole canned chipotle chilies in adobo (available at Mexican and Hispanic markets) or 2 teaspoons chili powder

6 chicken drumsticks (about 1 1/2 pounds)
6 chicken wings (about 1 pound)
2 1/4 cups fine fresh white bread crumbs
1/4 teaspoons cayenne, or to taste

Steps:

  • In a food processor blend together the chipotles, the mayonnaise, and salt and pepper to taste until the mixture is smooth. In a baking pan arrange the chicken pieces in one layer and coat them completely with the mayonnaise mixture. Chill the chicken, covered, for at least 1 hour or overnight.

Reduce the temperature to 375°F. and bake the chicken for 10 to 20 minutes more, or until it is cooked through.

This recipe is a little spicy, but it's not too hot. I would say it's a medium spice level.

I used a different brand of chipotle chili sauce and it didn't taste as good. I would recommend using the brand specified in the recipe.

I marinated the chicken overnight and it was so flavorful. The chipotle chili sauce was the perfect finishing touch.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great! I used a rotisserie chicken to save time and it worked perfectly.

The chicken was a little dry, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend using a different cut of chicken, like thighs or drumsticks.
