Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup Bisquick mix: This gives the drumsticks their crispiness.
  • 1 package ranch dressing and seasoning mix: Provides that incredible ranch flavor!
  • 1 teaspoon paprika: For a little bit of a kick.
  • 1 egg slightly beaten: This acts as a binder for the coating.
  • 1 tablespoon water: To mix with the egg.
  • 2 1/2 to 3 lb chicken drumsticks 12 to 15 pieces: The stars of the show!
  • 1 cup ranch dressing if desired: For dipping, because who doesn’t love dipping?

Method
 

  1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). This will ensure a perfect crispy exterior.
  2. Prepare the Baking Pan: Line a 13x9-inch pan with foil and generously spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  3. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a shallow dish, combine the Bisquick mix, ranch dressing mix (dry), and paprika. This will create a tasty coating for your drumsticks.
  4. Prepare the Egg Mixture: In another shallow dish, mix the beaten egg with the tablespoon of water.
  5. Coat the Drumsticks: Dip each chicken drumstick first into the egg mixture, allowing extra to drip off, then coat each piece in the Bisquick mixture. Make sure they're well-covered for optimal crunch!
  6. Arrange in the Pan: Place the coated drumsticks in the prepared pan, making sure they are not overcrowded for even cooking.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. After that, turn the drumsticks over and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown, and the internal temperature reads 180°F (80°C).
  8. Serve: Once cooked, serve these delicious drumsticks with ranch dressing for dipping if desired. Enjoy every crispy, juicy bite!
