You can also make this delicious sticky, fragrant recipe with a whole chicken, but I like the drumsticks best.
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 hours
Total Time: 10 hours, 15 minutes
Ingredients:
- 2 tsp. salt
- 1 Tbsp. paprika
- 2 tsp. chili powder
- 1 tsp. onion powder
- 1 tsp. thyme leaves
- 1 tsp. white pepper
- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp. black pepper
- 4 lbs. chicken drumsticks, skinned if desired
- 1 chopped onion
Preparation:
In a small bowl, thoroughly combine salt and all the spices. Rinse drumsticks and pat dry with paper towel. Rub the spice mixture into the chicken, skin side and bone side, making sure it is evenly distributed and pressed down deep into the skin. Place in a resealable plastic bag, seal, place in a baking pan to catch any drips, and refrigerate overnight.
Place the onions in the bottom of a 4 quart crockpot and top with the chicken and spices. Cook on LOW for 8-12 hours until very tender. Serves 8-10
