Though they're quite irresistible right out of the oven, these moist and juicy drumsticks (with a slight kick) are perfect picnic food, since they're also terrific cold or at room temperature
Ingredients:
12 chicken drumsticks (2 1/2 to 3 pounds total)
1/2 cup dijon mustard
3/4 cup panko (japanese bread crumbs)
3/4 cup grated parmigiano-reggiano (1 1/2 ounces)
3/4 teaspoon cayenne
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450°F with rack in upper third.
2. Pat chicken dry, then toss with mustard until evenly coated.
3. Stir together panko, cheese, cayenne, and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Drizzle with butter and toss.
4. Dredge each drumstick in crumb mixture to coat, then arrange, without crowding, in a buttered large 4-sided sheet pan. Roast until chicken is browned and cooked through, about 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
5. >Cooks' note: Chicken can be roasted 1 day ahead and chilled.
