Green Coconut Chicken

I was searching for some curry recipes with chicken drumsticks but ended up making baked drumsticks and they were awesome. I served them with rice and vermicelli pilaf and steamed broccoli and soya seeds (from the edamame)
The green in this green coconut chicken is cilantro

Ingredients:

  5. 1 tablespoon plain yogurt
  6. 1 teaspoon salt
  7. 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
Marinate the chicken with salt and pepper for 10 minutes. Meanwhile make a smooth paste with the rest of the ingredients and marinate in the fridge for 3-4 hours. Let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes(Leave it on the counter)
Bake at 375 degrees for 50-60 minutes or until the chicken drumsticks get cooked through.
