I am trying to find a good marinade for drum sticks and thighs in oder to fry them in the end. My husband is a good cook and I am pretty good my self, but I want to impress him tonight since he is having such a hard time with his mother dying. Thanks to all who respond!

I really like using a marinade with freshly squeezed lemon juice. It makes the chicken very moist and tasty. Just add some seasonings and lemon juice overnight or however long you have and then grill it. yumm!! good luck to you. Its really nice that you are so considerate of your husband..he;s very lucky.

I saw your comment about your mil and I want to say I am sorry that you and your family is going through this time right now..I don't have a good marinade for chicken, as I just coat it with a seasoned flour and cornmeal mix, (seasoned with a variety of spices like paprika,sale,pepper, and garlic) and then just bake...

I only use lemon and salt and that's it. It makes my drum stick really tasty. I think you just have to marinade it well enough and make sure you also have a very tasty gravy to make eating more delightful. My family loves chicken so I always make sure I have marinated chicken ready for cooking in my fridge all the time.

Usually I marinate my drum sticks in full seasoning( chives tickitime, onions, blackpepper,a little salt paprika) for atleast a few hours ( preferably over night for me lol) then i half cook it in as little water as is possible I use the stock later for something else. Then I base it with a beaten egg white and coat it in seasoned flour or in seasoned breadcrumbs then I deep fry it on low to medium heat. I've never heard a complaint about my fry chicken yet:) most times I dont get to eat as much as i want cause all gets finished too soon.:) Have fun!
