  • How do you make battered chicken drumsticks in a skillet?
  • First, make the batter, like this: 1. Crack the egg into a bowl and whisk it with a whisk or fork. 2. Add half the salt to the egg. 3. Pour in the milk and mix everything thoroughly. 4. Sift the flour and mix it with the seasoning in a separate bowl. 5. Add the remaining salt to the flour-and-seasoning mixture.
  • Tip: the wrong pan can ruin even the best recipe. For all the details on choosing the perfect skillet for different dishes, read more here.
  • Every oil is good only up to a certain temperature — its smoke point, beyond which it starts to burn and forms harmful compounds, including carcinogens. For how to gauge frying temperature, pick the best oil for the job, and which oils to skip entirely, read more here.
  • If you use a store-bought seasoning blend, be sure to check the ingredient list on the package. These blends often already contain salt, so keep that in mind or you risk over-salting the dish.
  • Now you can move on to the main dish: 6. Rinse the drumsticks and pat them dry with a towel. 7. Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet. 8. Dip each drumstick first in the egg mixture, then in the flour mixture, and lower it into the hot oil. 9. Fry the drumsticks on both sides until cooked through, turning them from time to time. The battered chicken drumsticks are ready. Enjoy — they're delicious!
