Breaded Curry Chicken Drummies

These drumsticks are crispy with just the right amount of zing to get your mouth watering for more! They are super easy to make and baked rather than fried, so they saves on fat but not flavor! Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or assorted chicken parts can also be used instead of all drumsticks.
