Deviled Chicken Drumsticks

These devilled chicken drumsticks are a fantastic high-protein option for those seeking a balance of heat and crunch. Coated in a tangy layer of Dijon mustard and dredged through a savoury blend of panko breadcrumbs, cayenne, and nutty Parmigiano-Reggiano, they offer a sophisticated twist on the classic breaded chicken. The high roasting temperature ensures the skin becomes wonderfully crisp while the meat remains succulent and tender.

Served warm for a comforting midweek dinner or at room temperature for a picnic or packed lunch, this dish is as versatile as it is flavourful. The use of panko crumbs provides a lighter, more delicate texture than traditional breadcrumbs, making these drumsticks a crowd-pleasing favourite that feels indulgent yet remains a wholesome, protein-packed choice for any day of the week.

Ingredients for Deviled Chicken Drumsticks

  • 12 chicken drumsticks (2 1/2 to 1.4kg total)

  • 80g Dijon mustard

  • 110g panko (Japanese bread crumbs)

  • 180ml grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (45g)

  • 3/4 teaspoons cayenne

How to make Deviled Chicken Drumsticks

Preheat oven to 232°C with rack in upper third.

Pat chicken dry, then toss with mustard until evenly coated.

Stir together panko, cheese, cayenne, and 1/2 teaspoons each of salt and pepper. Drizzle with butter and toss.
