Bacon Wrapped Chicken Drumsticks With Plum Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. Flatten chicken to 1/2-in. thickness. Spread 3 tablespoons cream cheese over each. Dot with butter and sprinkle with salt; roll up. Wrap each with bacon strip, securing with toothpicks if necessary., Place, seam side down, in a greased 13x9-in. baking pan. Bake, uncovered, until a thermometer reads 165°, 35-40 minutes. Broil 6 in. from the heat for 5 minutes or until bacon is crisp. Remove toothpicks before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Mix together the lemon juice and garlic with some seasoning. Prick the chicken several times with a sharp knife and drizzle with half the garlicky lemon juice. Wrap each one in a rasher of bacon and put in a single layer in a roasting tin. Drizzle on the remaining lemon juice.
• Cook for 45-50 mins until the chicken is cooked through and the bacon is starting to crisp up. Flash under a hot grill if you like your bacon really crisp.
• Eat warm or allow to cool, then chill until you're ready to pack up in an airtight container. Eat with crusty bread and some extra lemon squeezed over the chicken, if you like.

Steps:

• Prepare a fire in a grill.
• Rub drumsticks with salt, pepper and garlic, if using.
• Wrap a strip of bacon firmly around each drumstick, securing ends with toothpicks.
• Brush with vegetable oil and grill, turning frequently and brushing with additional oil, for about 12 minutes, or until cooked through.
• To test for doneness, pierce meat in the thickest part with a thin skewer.
• The juices that run out should be clear.
• Heat jam for sauce with apple cider vinegar and chili sauce in a small pan or microwave oven and beat together.
• Arrange hot drumsticks on a platter around a dish of the sauce for dipping.
