This recipe for Parmesan chicken leg drumsticks is my favorite. Serve with a nice fresh salad and a vegetable side dish.

Ingredients
- 1 large egg
- 2 cups grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 12 chicken drumsticks
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking dish with foil.
- Whisk egg in a shallow bowl. Mix Parmesan, pepper, and salt together in another shallow bowl. Dip each chicken drumstick in egg; lift up so excess egg drips back into the bowl. Roll in Parmesan mixture until well coated. Place into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown on the outside, no longer pink at the bone, and the juices run clear, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
