I love serving this with some rice and a salad. Here are a few more of my favorite side dish that pairs perfectly with this cilantro lime chicken drumsticks.
Cilantro Lime Drumsticks Recipe Instructions:
Step one: You want to start by marinating your chicken. You don’t have to allow it to marinate overnight but doing this would help the flavor really get into your chicken.
Start by placing your chicken drumsticks in a large freezer bag. Add the juice from both limes along with the taco seasoning. Seal the bag and then massage the chicken.
You can now place it in the fridge to marinate or cook immediately. Either way, your chicken will taste amazing.
Step three: Last add your cilantro. I diced fresh cilantro them sprinkles it on.
