BAKED SESAME PARMESAN CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS (OR WINGS)
This is another recipe from Toronto Star. The original recipe called for chicken wings and with the skin left on. We believe however after we made it with the skin on that it would be better with the skin off. You can do it either way and let me know what you prefer.The flavour of the parmesan comes thru very nicely.

Steps:
- Position an oven rack on the lowest shelf and preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Combine the breadcrumbs, oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large resealable plastic bag. Put the drumsticks in a large bowl and toss to coat with 1 tablespoon water. Place the drumsticks in the bag with the breadcrumbs and shake well to coat, pressing the breadcrumbs firmly into the meat. Arrange the drumsticks in a circle on a 9-inch pie dish with the tips facing out (they may rest on the rim of the dish). Bake until the breadcrumbs are dark golden and the internal temperature registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer (avoid touching bone), 30 to 35 minutes.
- Divide the sauce evenly over the drumsticks. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the top and lay 1 slice of mozzarella on top of each drumstick. Return the drumsticks to the oven and cook until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 10 minutes. Serve.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- In a bowl, mix together the Parmesan, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper (to taste).
- Line a shallow baking pan with foil.
- In a small skillet, melt the butter and oil together; dip each drumstick in the butter mixture, then in the cheese mixture, and place on the foil-lined pan.
- Bake in oven for 1 hour or until chicken is completely cooked.
Tips:
- To achieve crispy and juicy drumsticks, start by patting them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- Use a combination of spices and seasonings to create a flavorful coating for the drumsticks. Paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper are classic options, but feel free to experiment with other herbs and spices that you enjoy.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet when placing the drumsticks. Make sure there is enough space between each drumstick so that they can cook evenly.
- Bake the drumsticks in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- For extra crispy drumsticks, broil them for a few minutes at the end of the cooking time.
- Serve the drumsticks with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing, barbecue sauce, or honey mustard.
