6 ingredients
4 steps

Ingredients

  • 8 chicken drumsticks
  • 1/4 cup hot pepper sauce
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons yellow cornmeal
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups vegetable oil for frying

Directions

  1. 1
    Remove skin from chicken and place in a resealable plastic bag. Pour sauce over chicken, seal bag, and refrigerate to marinate for at least 1 hour, up to 24 hours. The longer the chicken marinates, the spicier it will be.
  2. 2
    Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  3. 3
    Combine the flour, cornmeal, and salt in another resealable plastic bag. Add the drumsticks, seal bag, and shake to coat.
  4. 4
    Fry the chicken, uncovered, for 25 to 30 minutes or until juices run clear. Turn occasionally to brown evenly.
