Mustard Grilled Chicken

Ingredients

Chicken drumsticks……4
Mustard paste…………….6 table spoon
Breadcrumbs……………..1 cup (fresh)
Garlic………………………..2 clove (large, chopped)
Dried basil..……………….1 tea spoon
Lemon juice………………1 ½ table spoon
Salt to taste

Method
  • Marinate the chicken drumsticks with salt and lemon juice for 20 min.
  • Meanwhile mix the breadcrumbs, chopped garlic, basil and salt in a plate.
  • Now apply a generous amount of mustered paste to the drumsticks with a basting brush and roll them on the breadcrumbs mixture to give them a breadcrumb coating.
  • Place them on the microwave grill.
  • Preheat the microwave in grill setting for 5 min.
  • The chicken juices might drip inside the microwave while cooking so line the base microwave plate with aluminium foil.
  • Now grill the chicken for 10 min.
  • Remove from microwave and turn the pieces upside down to grill the other side for 10 min.
  • Check if the drumsticks are cooked by poking a slit in one of the pieces to check the inside.
  • If you are not sure, place the drumsticks on a microwavable plate and cook them for 5 more min on the normal microwave mode (not the grill mode), just to make sure they are cooked through out.
  • Serve hot and enjoy the juicy chicken drumsticks.
