Ingredients:
- 6 chicken drumsticks
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup crushed cornflakes
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Breading Mix
In a bowl, combine flour, crushed cornflakes, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. This creates a crispy, cheesy coating packed with flavor.
2. Make the Egg Wash
Whisk together the eggs and milk in a separate bowl. This will act as the binder for the coating, helping it stick to the chicken.
3. Coat the Chicken
Dip each drumstick into the egg mixture, then coat thoroughly in the breading mix. Press gently to ensure the coating sticks evenly.
4. Fry the Chicken
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Fry the drumsticks for 12–15 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.
5. Serve
Let the chicken rest briefly, then serve hot. These drumsticks are crispy, cheesy, and packed with flavor.
