Instructions

Rinse the drumsticks under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. If time permits, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. If time is limited, proceed immediately to the next step.
Heat 15 ml vegetable oil in a pan over high heat. Fry the drumsticks until golden brown on all sides, about 5-8 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium and continue frying for 2-3 minutes. While the chicken is cooking, peel and cut the onions into quarters.
Reduce heat to low, add the onions to the pan, and fry together, stirring occasionally, until the onions turn golden, about 5-8 minutes.
Pour hot water into the pan around the drumsticks until the liquid partially covers them. Cover with a lid and simmer over low heat for 7-10 minutes until the chicken reaches 74°C (165°F) internal temperature.

Bon appetit.
