Best Pan Fried Drumstick Recipe 2022

Pan Fried Drumstick Recipe

Cooking with chicken gives us options. Whether it’s wholly grilled or minced, cooked with greens or a dollop of butter and cream, made into a clear soup or a spicy curry, chicken rules the roost. Chicken is one meat that adapts to any flavor and requires minimum effort. No wonder it’s been popular even during 600 BC, if the Babylonian carvings have to be believed.

I often tend to experiment this beautiful white meat in different ways. And last day, when Jumpy (my 4 year old lab) and me were returning from our daily walk, I got a sudden craving for grilled chicken. As it was almost 11 in the night, and no outlet in my vicinity were open to satiate my craving, the only option was to create something on my own with the two chicken legs that were resting inside the refrigerator.

While the original idea was only limited to the pan fried drumstick, the sauce was something that I added in the last minute to give it that extra yum factor. Try it, it’s simple and definitely worth the taste.

While the chicken is cooking, finely chop an onion and put it on the sides of the chicken leg. Don’t mix. Cut half a tomato, chop into fine pieces and put it along with the onion. flip the chicken leg again and Sprinkle some chilli flakes and cover the pan. Let it cook for 5 mins and put the flame out.

Let it rest in the pan for another 6 mins. Now to serve, place the drumstick on a plate. In the pan, pour 2tbsp of fresh milk cream and mix it with the onion and tomatoes. Sprinkle a pinch of salt if needed. Now put your caramalized onion cream on the sides of your drumstick. Enjoy the sinfully soft and spiced up chicken with that delicious onion sauce.
