Spiced Chicken Drumsticks with Coconut Peanut Dip

With a savoury, sweet, citrusy, tangy and a little spicy coconut peanut dip, these well spiced chicken drumsticks are perfect for a budget-friendly TV dinner with some seasonal leafy greens and crispy roasted potatoes. The flavours come out best when the chicken drumsticks remain infused in the marinade for at least 1 hour, but not more than 6 hours as the marinade contains lime juice, which can worsen the texture by making it too dry if sitting too long. Longer is not always better. Stabbing the chicken with a fork allows the marinade to penetrate deep inside of the meat and enhance the flavour.

Coconut Peanut Dip
  • 2-4 Dried red chillie peppers
  • 1 piece / 30 g Ginger root, peeled and roughly chopped
  • 3 Garlic cloves, peeled
  • 3/4 tsp Black pepper powder
  • 1 tsp Cumin powder
  • 1 tsp Cayenne pepper powder
  • 1/4 tsp Turmeric powder
  • 2 tbsp Lime juice
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • 600-800 g Chicken drumsticks
  • 1 Lime, cut into wedges, to serve
  • 1 Tomato, cut into wedges, to serve
  • 4 tbsp Creamy or chunky peanut butter
  • 70 ml Coconut milk
  • 1 Lime, juice and zest
  • 10 g Ginger, peeled and grated
  • 1 tbsp Soya sauce
  • 1/2-1 tsp Chilli powder
  • 1/2 tbsp Peanut oil
  • 1/2 tbsp Roasted sesame seed oil
  • 20 g Roasted salted peanuts, chopped
  • 1 tbsp Spring onion, chopped
  • 1 tbsp Cilantro or parsley, chopped
  1. Soak the dried chillie peppers in 3 tbsp of hot water. Set aside for 30 minutes. In a blender, add the soaked chillie peppers with water, ginger, garlic, black pepper powder, cumin powder, cayenne powder, turmeric powder, lime juice and olive oil. Process all the ingredients into a paste.
  2. Stab each chicken drumstick all over with a fork and place them in a baking pan. Season with salt and rub marinade generously on the surface of the chicken and make sure all the sides are thouroughly coated with the marinade paste. Cover and let marinate for 1 hour.
  3. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Roast the chicken for 35 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  4. Combine peanut butter, coconut milk, lime juice, zest, ginger, soya sauce, chilli powder, and oils together in a bowl. Top with chopped peanuts and herbs.
  5. Serve chicken with lime wedges, tomato wedges if using, and prepared coconut peanut dip.

I am not a huge fan of meat with bone left in it, but who can resist a wholesome chicken drumstick, so long as the skin is good and crunchy!

This one ticks all the flavour boxes for me, although I never realised that you could over-marinate meat if you use lime juice. Thanks for that top tip! :)
