    Pro Tips...

    Red potatoes tend to cook faster than white. If you want firmer potatoes choose the white variety.

     

    You can adjust the seasoning amount and type to shake things up. Try a spicier seasoning for more flavor.

     

    Want to make some gravy to serve with your Chicken and Potatoes? You can strain the drippings, mix with cornstarch in small saucepan, and simmer to make a delicious gravy that perfectly compliments your meal.

     

    Fresh herbs added before serving will give your chicken even more flavor.

     

    If you'd like a crispier skin on your chicken, broil or brown the drumsticks in a skillet after cooking.
