About Chicken, broilers or fryers, dark meat, drumstick, meat and skin, cooked, braised
Braised dark meat drumstick with skin delivers a solid protein hit alongside meaningful fat from the skin and the dark meat itself. Braising renders skin somewhat less crispy than roasting but keeps the meat extremely moist and tender. The combination of dark meat and skin makes this one of the juicier chicken preparations going. Fat is moderate rather than alarming, and the protein is strong. It's the kind of utilitarian chicken piece that forms the backbone of many weekday dinners.
