Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 12 servings

Ingredients

24 chicken drumsticks
1 cup chopped onion
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup chopped garlic
1/4 cup soy sauce
5 cups fresh breadcrumbs made from crustless French bread
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
1/3 cup dry white wine or chicken broth

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Divide drumsticks between 2 large resealable plastic bags. Whisk onion, oil, garlic and soy sauce in medium bowl to blend. Divide onion mixture between bags with drumsticks. Seal bags; turn to coat with marinade. Refrigerate overnight.

    Step 2

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with foil. Brush foil generously with vegetable oil.

    Step 3

    Remove drumsticks from marinade; scrape off any onion or garlic. Place drumsticks in large bowl. Place breadcrumbs in another large bowl. Whisk mustard and wine in small bowl. Drizzle over drumsticks; toss well to coat. Sprinkle drumsticks with salt and pepper. Turn each drumstick in breadcrumbs, coating lightly but evenly. Place on prepared baking sheets.

    Step 4

    Bake drumsticks 45 minutes. Increase heat to 400°F and bake drumsticks until evenly browned and cooked through, about 15 minutes longer.

Charred Vegetable Ragù
This sauce is slightly magical. The texture cloaks pasta much like a traditional meat sauce does, and the flavors are deep and rich, but it’s actually vegan!
Crispy Tofu With Scallion-Ginger Sauce
The tofu is crunchy on the outside, in part thanks to a panko-studded exterior, and squishy-in-a-good-way on the inside. It also comes together in 20 minutes.
