Stuffed Chicken Drumsticks in Green Sauce Recipe
The New Year's table is always rich in a variety of snacks. I prefer those that are easy to prepare and that can be prepared in advance. Try chicken drumsticks stuffed with nuts and cheese in a bright green pesto sauce. You can cook them in a day or even two, they will become even tastier, completely saturated with flavors and seasonings.

  8. Bake the shins in a preheated 200 degree oven for 15 minutes. Then reduce the heat to 160 and bake for another 20-25 minutes. Check readiness by puncturing the shin with a thin knife - transparent juice is a sign of readiness. Cover the shins with foil and let cool. Store in the refrigerator until serving. The shins can be served as a hot dish, but they are much tastier when cold and soaked in fragrant green sauce!
