Ingredients

  • 6 raw chicken drumsticks, skin removed
  • 1/2 tsp. salt, divided
  • 1/2 cup Fiber One bran cereal (original)
  • 1 1/4 tsp. black pepper
  • 3/4 tsp. garlic powder
  • 3/4 tsp. onion powder
  • 3/4 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp. chili powder
  • 1/4 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute (like Egg Beaters Original)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

  2. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray and set aside. Season chicken with 1/4 tsp. salt and set aside.

  3. Using a blender or food processor, grind Fiber One cereal to a breadcrumb-like consistency. Transfer crumbs to a large sealable plastic bag. Add remaining 1/4 tsp. salt and all other seasonings. Seal bag and shake to mix. Open bag and, if you like, season crumbs to taste with additional seasonings. Set aside.

  4. Place egg substitute in a wide bowl. Two at a time, coat drumsticks in egg substitute, gently shake to remove excess liquid and place in the bag with the crumbs. Seal and shake to coat. Transfer crumb-coated drumsticks to the baking sheet and repeat with remaining drumsticks.

  5. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes and then carefully flip. Bake for another 15 – 20 minutes, until crispy and cooked through. Enjoy!
