Servings: 2
Serving Size: 2 drumsticks and 1 teaspoon sauce per serving
Nonstick cooking spray
4 chicken drumsticks (about 1 lb total), skinned*
1/2 cup bottled picante sauce
2 tsp bottled cayenne pepper sauce (such as Frank's Red Hot) OR
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1/4 tsp dried thyme, crushed
1 bay leaf
2 tsp olive oil
1. Lightly coat an unheated 3 or 3 1/2-quart slow cooker with cooking
spray. Place chicken in the bottom of the cooker.
In a small bowl combine picante sauce, pepper sauce, paprika, thyme,
and bay leaf. Spoon over chicken in cooker.
2. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 6 hours or on high-heat setting
for 3 hours.
3. Transfer chicken pieces to a serving bowl. Remove bay leaf from sauce
in cooker; stir in the oil. Spoon sauce evenly over the chicken. Cover
and let stand for 10 minutes to absorb flavors. To serve, spoon 1 teaspoon
sauce over each drumstick. Discard remaining sauce.
Test Kitchen Tip:
To remove the chicken skin easily, use a paper towel to help grab the
skin. If you use your fingers, the skin is very slippery and difficult
to grab.
