Herbed Chicken Drumstick Variations

Tex-Mex Drumsticks

Combine 1/4 cup ketchup with 2 tablespoons lime juice and 1 tablespoon chili powder. Pull back skin from drumsticks and rub this mixture on flesh; pull skin back over, fasten with toothpicks, and rub with ketchup mixture. Marinate for 4-5 hours in the fridge, then grill as directed. Serve with dip made by combining equal amounts of sour cream, salsa, and chopped avocado.

Creamy Cheese Dips

Serve these dips with any of these drumsticks. Kids love anything they can hold by hand and dip into something delicious. Combine 1 cup sour cream, 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, and 1/3 cup chopped parsley. Or combine an 8-ounce package of softened cream cheese with 1/2 cup milk, 8 ounces processed cheese spread, and cooked crumbled bacon.
