This is an American favourite and a true palate puncher! Adjust the amounts of hot sauce and cayenne pepper to the dish, or remove it completely and still enjoy the flavours.

Ingredients

Plain flour

cup(s), (55g)

Pepper

¼ tsp, (cayenne)

Garlic powder or flakes

¼ tsp

Skinless chicken drumstick

8 individual, bone removed, (lovely legs) fat trimmed

Chilli sauce

cup(s), (hot sauce)

Reduced fat oil spread

1 tbs, melted

Rocket

80 g

Red capsicum

125 g, roasted, sliced

Avocado

½ medium, chopped

Lemon juice

1½ tbs

Ranch dressing, light

80 ml, (1/3 cup)

Lemon(s)

1 medium, cut into wedges to serve

Instructions

  1. Combine the flour, pepper, garlic powder and salt in a large bowl. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Line a baking tray with baking paper and add chicken in a single layer. Cover. Place in the fridge for 1 hour.
  2. Preheat the oven to 220°C. Combine the hot sauce and the melted spread in a small bowl. Coat the chicken pieces, one at a time, in the hot sauce mixture. Return to the tray. Spoon over any remaining hot sauce mixture. Bake for 30 minutes or until cooked through.
  3. Meanwhile, combine the rocket, capsicum, avocado and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Serve the chicken with the rocket salad, ranch dressing and lemon wedges.
