- 45 mins
Ingredients
- 8 chicken drumsticks, skin removed*
- 3 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp light mayonnaise
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 1 lime, squeezed, and lime zest
- 3/4 tsp black pepper
- kosher salt to taste
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Rinse the chicken and remove the skin and all fat. Pat dry; place in a large bowl and season with salt.
In a small bowl combine Dijon, mayonnaise, lime juice, lime zest, garlic and pepper. Mix well. Pour over chicken, tossing well to coat.
Spray a large baking pan with a little Pam to prevent sticking since all the fat and skin was removed from chicken.
Place chicken to fit in a single layer. Top the chicken with dried parsley.
Bake until cooked through, about 35 minutes. Finish the chicken under the broiler until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
