The drumsticks are perhaps the most popular part of the chicken among many housewives. They are inexpensive, and cooking is subject to novice chefs. But we decided to complicate the culinary task and make stuffed chicken drumsticks. Moreover, both the dressing and the place of preparation will be different. And the result will please in any case.
Ingredients:
Step-by-step recipe for stuffed chicken drumsticks
Wash all chicken drumsticks. Pull the skin with a stocking from the widest part upwards. Chop off the bone with meat just under the cartilage.
Cut off the chicken carefully. Throw out the bone. Finely chop the remaining meat. Transfer to a small bowl.
Now cut the Russian hard cheese into small cubes. Also, wash and disassemble all the dill sprigs. Chop the greens.
Add cheese and dill to the chicken. Mix and add salt and pepper. Stuff the stockings with the minced meat.
In a frying pan in hot oil, fry all the workpieces on both sides for two minutes.
Lightly grease a tall baking sheet. Spread out the stuffed chicken drumsticks.
Transfer to the oven. Bake the poultry at 185 degrees for about 30-32 minutes. Turn off heat and serve immediately with garnish and pickles.
Before removing the skin with a stocking, we recommend that you carefully look at its surface. There may be bits of feathers left that are important to remove with tongs or fingers. It is also better to grease the prepared stockings with a thin layer of oil, so that later it will be more convenient to add the filling inside.
To speed up the process, we suggest eliminating frying and baking the drumsticks in the oven using chicken seasonings for aroma and taste.
Ingredients:
How to Quickly Cook Stuffed Chicken Drumsticks
Cut off the cartilage from the washed shins. Carefully, so as not to damage, remove the skin with a whole stocking.
Cut the poultry meat from the bone and chop it. Combine with coarsely grated cheese, salt and chicken spices.
Stuff the skin, giving the shape of the lower leg. Spread the resulting blanks on a baking sheet, thinly greased with oil.
Bake the stuffed chicken drumsticks at 200 degrees for 15-18 minutes. If the stove has a Top Fire function, turn it on for the last five minutes.
If you are worried that the filling may leak out during the baking process, sew up the top and bottom of the skin with refractory thread. It must be removed before serving. As for spices, in addition to the indicated chicken seasonings, it is permissible to take dried or fresh herbs (dill, cilantro or parsley).
For lovers of spicy aromatic chicken dishes, we recommend baking our drumsticks in sour cream-garlic dressing with fresh parsley.
Ingredients:
How to cook
Rinse the shins and blot with napkins. Pull up the skin with a stocking up to the cartilage. Chop off the bone.
Remove the meat with a knife and immediately chop it on a cutting board. Place the bird in a bowl. Sprinkle with salt. Add chopped parsley and grated cheese.
Stir the filling. Put it in prepared stockings. Place the stuffed chicken drumsticks on a high baking sheet.
Combine medium-fat sour cream and crushed fresh garlic in a separate container. Stir the dressing with a whisk.
Pour the resulting sauce over the drumsticks. Transfer immediately to the oven. Cook the poultry for 25-27 minutes, setting at 185 degrees.
If you want to achieve an even brighter taste, add not only garlic to the sour cream, but also salt, ground (black) pepper and other seasonings. As for the greens in the filling, parsley can be replaced with cilantro, basil or dill.
If you think that garlic isn't enough to keep our appetizer spicy, let's bake the drumsticks in Chili Tomato Sauce. Didn't you find a similar gas station at hand? Take any other and include ground hot pepper in its composition.
Ingredients:
Step by step recipe
Wash all drumsticks (chicken) in clean water. Pull the skin up to the cartilage with a stocking. Chop off the bone. Cut off the meat from it and chop finely.
Combine poultry in a bowl with finely grated cheese and chopped herbs of your choice. Mix.
Put the filling from the bowl in batches into the prepared stockings. Sew up wide edges with a thread (culinary) if desired.
Fry the pieces on both sides in a small amount of hot oil on the thick bottom of the pan. Time for one surface is 2 minutes.
Now transfer the stuffed chicken drumsticks to a tall, buttered baking sheet.
In a glass, mix the crushed garlic with dry basil and Chili sauce. Brush each shin generously with hot dressing.
Bake juicy poultry at 185 degrees for half an hour. Serve immediately after turning off the oven.
It may take a little less time to bake completely. Monitor the condition of the bird and turn off the fire early if necessary. But remember, the minimum time to cook chicken is 15-17 minutes.
Usually chicken drumsticks are stuffed with cheese and herbs. However, we suggest diversifying the filling by including several vegetables. But we recommend baking stuffed chicken in a slow cooker with a little broth.
Ingredients:
How to cook
Pull off the peel in the form of a stocking from the legs washed in water. Chop off the bone and meat under the cartilage with a kitchen hatchet.
Chop the chicken, separating it from the bone. Finely rub the cheese immediately. Remove the husk from the onion, and remove the top from the pepper. Grind vegetables along with dill (rinse everything beforehand).
Combine chicken, pepper, dill and onion with crushed garlic. Add salt and a pinch of ground pepper.
Fill the skins with cartilage tightly with the minced meat. After that, thinly grease the bottom of the bowl with oil. Place the stuffed chicken drumsticks.
Cook the workpieces in the "Fry" mode for two minutes on each side. Then pour in the broth and snap the lid back on.
Change the mode to "Extinguishing". Simmer the bird for 20 minutes. Then open the multicooker. Continue the process until the broth is absorbed. This will take approximately 7-8 minutes.
If you have a desire to supplement the recipe with other vegetables, do so. The main thing is that they are suitable for chicken. These can be celery stalks, various greens, green onions or zucchini.
In the last recipe, we will cook stuffed drumsticks in a pan. And as a dressing, we will use a sauce made from broth and mayonnaise.
Ingredients:
Step by step recipe
Pull the soft skin from each shin down to the cartilage. Chop off the bone with a hatchet. Cut the meat with a knife. Throw it in a bowl.
Now rub the Russian cheese and squeeze out the peeled garlic. Add chopped parsley and ground pepper to the poultry along with these ingredients. Salt.
Knead the filling. Transfer her to stockings. Fix the lower wide edge with fireproof thread.
Heat a spoonful of oil on a thick bottom over medium heat. Place all four pieces carefully inside.
Fry the stuffed chicken drumsticks for two minutes, turning them over with a spatula. Whisk the chicken broth with three tablespoons of mayonnaise in parallel with a whisk.
Pour the dressing into the skillet. Cover with a lid (not tightly). Reduce the heat of the burner to minimum.
Simmer the chicken for 10-12 minutes, until the dressing thickens. Serve hot with a garnish, sprinkle with chopped herbs.
To make the dressing homogeneous and not curl up when stewing, we recommend adding a thin stream of warm broth to the mayonnaise. It is important to actively mix the ingredients with a whisk. But it is necessary to extinguish the shins at a minimum temperature.

If you decide to cook such a dish yourself, then you should first of all decide on what ingredients will serve you as a filling. We offer a standard set that includes the following:
To make a stuffed boneless leg, the chilled meat product must be well processed. To do this, you need to wash it, and then carefully remove the skin without damaging its integrity. Next, you need to separate the pulp from the bones, and chop it in a meat grinder or finely chop it with a sharp knife.
Boneless stuffed legs should only be baked in the oven after they are formed correctly. To do this, you need to cook delicious and aromatic minced chicken.
So, vegetables (onions and carrots) should be peeled and chopped: chop with a knife and grate, respectively. As for pickled mushrooms, they need to be rinsed and cut into strips. After that, all the ingredients must be put in a saucepan with butter and fried until a slight blush appears.
After completing all the described actions, the processed vegetables and mushrooms must be mixed together with the crushed meat product, seasoned with salt, dried herbs and pepper, and then break the chicken egg. As a result, you should get a fragrant, homogeneous minced meat. By the way, some housewives additionally add white bread crumb to it, which is soaked in fresh milk.
The boneless leg, the recipe for which we are considering, is very easy to form. To do this, you need to take a previously prepared skin and stuff it with aromatic minced meat. In this case, it is necessary to ensure that the hams are completely clogged and keep their shape. If necessary, in some places the skin should be sewn up with a needle and thick threads. As a result, you should get beautiful and mouth-watering stuffed boneless chicken legs.

After the honey sauce is ready, it should be greased on all the stuffed boneless chicken legs. Next, they must be placed in a mold or on a baking sheet, and then sent to the oven. It is recommended to bake meat products for 45-58 minutes at a temperature of 210 degrees. During this time, the stuffed boneless legs will be completely cooked, they will become ruddy and very tasty.

If you could not purchase pickled or fresh mushrooms, then you can cook such a dish without them. For this we need:
Stuffed boneless chicken legs, photos of which are presented in this article, can be done in different ways. The most unusual dish is the one where hard cheese is used.
So, before you form the products, you should prepare all the ingredients. Chicken legs must be rinsed, dried with paper towels, and then carefully peel off the skin without damaging it. Next, you need to separate the pulp from the bones and grind it in a blender.
As for the remaining components, they should also be processed. Grate the peeled carrots and hard cheese, and chop the onions with a knife. Next, you need to put the vegetables in a saucepan with butter and fry a little.
At the end, all ingredients (chicken meat, sautéed carrots and onions, grated cheese) should be mixed, seasoned with dried herbs, salt, pepper and other seasonings.
Boneless chicken legs stuffed with cheese, meat and vegetables are not baked in the oven for very long. And before you send them there, you should form beautiful and mouth-watering products. To do this, the previously prepared minced meat must be placed in the skin and its open places must be sewn up using thick threads and a needle.
Having formed dense, boneless hams, they should be generously greased with mayonnaise mixed with grated garlic. Next, the products must be laid out in a baking dish and placed in the oven.

After the boneless are baked, they should be removed and placed on a plate. It is recommended to serve such a dish along with some side dish and a slice of bread.
If you need to get a hearty and unusual dish, then we suggest stuffing the hams not with mushrooms or cheese, but with prunes and walnuts. For this we need:
The principle of cooking this dish remains the same as described above. The skin should be carefully pulled off the chicken legs, and then the flesh should be separated from the bones and finely chopped. Next, you need to chop the onion head in a blender and put it to the meat. By adding salt and pepper to the ingredients, you should get a smooth and flavorful mince.
After the meat has been processed, you can start preparing dried fruits and nuts. They must be washed, filled with boiling water and left for half an hour. Then both products should be chopped with a knife or blender. After that, they need to be mixed with minced meat.
Having prepared a hearty and aromatic minced meat with prunes and nuts, they need to fill in all previously prepared skins and sew them with thick threads so that the filling does not fall out.

Stuffed chicken legs are one of the easiest and most inexpensive festive dishes to create and generate a burst of enthusiasm among guests, because for the uninitiated, the dish seems very tricky. Especially if the filling consists of more than three ingredients. Sometimes you get lost and cannot even imagine what is inside there. In my experience, the biggest success is chicken legs stuffed with mushrooms and cheese. I will give a recipe with step by step photos, you will see how easy it really is to create an empty "case" that is filled with filling and takes the shape of a chicken leg. They look extremely appetizing. First, you eat these legs with your eyes, and then you will feel the bright taste of crispy skin and the delicate texture of a juicy filling.
Ingredients:
Cooking time: 1.5 hours.
Amount 1-2 servings.
For the filling, take a medium onion and cut into small cubes. Leave the frozen champignons to thaw, then chop them finely. (Instead of frozen mushrooms, you can use fresh or pickled mushrooms.) Fry the onions in a skillet poured with vegetable oil until light golden brown, add the mushrooms, stir and fry until the liquid released from the frying evaporates from the mushrooms.
Rinse the chicken legs, remove the remaining feathers on the skin, if any. Using your fingers, gently pull the skin from the legs from the thickest part downward, stopping at the base of the bone. It can be removed easily, like a cover.
Now with a sharp knife, using chopping movements, cut off the bare leg with meat as close to the base as possible, but so as not to damage the skin at the base, leaving a piece of bone with the skin. Lightly brush the chicken stockings with salt and place in a bowl.
Cut the meat from the bones, and then chop into small pieces, transfer to a clean container. Add fried mushrooms with onions, grated hard cheese to the chicken meat. I also put some boiled buckwheat in the minced meat - it gives additional volume and improves the taste.
Stir the chicken mixture thoroughly, add a pinch of salt, and a mixture of ground peppers if desired. I also added a clove of garlic, passed through a garlic press.
Fill the chicken stocking with the resulting filling.
Use a thread and a needle and sew the stuffed chicken legs - literally three large stitches. (You can stab with wooden toothpicks, but then the shape of the edge will not be so even.)
Dip the legs lightly in flour and fry in vegetable oil over medium heat. On each side, 7-10 minutes.
After a beautiful and golden brown crust appears on the stuffed ones, dilute soy sauce (25 ml), water (25 ml) and a little honey (2 tsp.) In a glass. Pour the soy mixture over the legs and reduce heat. Cover the stuffed legs with a lid and simmer for 10 minutes until the liquid evaporates.
Free the prepared stuffed chicken legs from the threads and serve warm, in a separate dish, or with mashed potatoes.
