I usually like to buy bone-in skin-on chicken thighs, but they had only the boneless/skinless. (I like to make bone broth) They did have drumsticks, which I never buy, so decided to get a couple packages. The other night I made two batches of mayo, and needed some ideas of how to use it. With some leftover parmesan panko, I had the ingredients to try something new.
I dabbed the drumsticks dry with a paper towel, then generously applied the mayo onto them using a rubber spatula. I placed the drumsticks into a casserole, then sprinkled the panko on top, drizzling olive oil on top(this ensures crispiness)
I baked at 350 for 45 minutes.
The crust was amazing, but I would do a couple things differently. First, salt and pepper the chicken, letting stand for about 20 minutes to allow to absorb, then apply the mayo. Also, I think 40 minutes would have been plenty, maybe even 35.
I have more mayo to use up, and I have a huge container of fresh spinach, so I'll pick up some artichokes and make a warm spinach artichoke dip. Tuna salad is also a good way to use some up. I've got plenty of canned wild salmon, celery, black olives, and golden raisins. Seems like a lot of weird stuff to put in, but I love the textures and flavors.
Here's some more ways to use up homemade mayo(it has a shorter shelf life than storebought)

There are a lot of expressions that we hear now and then; most we think we know the origin of, some we don't. For the most part we just don't ponder the origin of commonplace expressions because they are... common. The first thing I discovered when beginning to read this little gem of a book, was not only hadn't I considered where many common sayings come from, but my preconceived idea of their origin was actually wrong! Kinda embarrassing, but guessing I may not be alone in this. I thought it would be of value then to share some tidbits from this book. Audio format is nice, as you can multitask while listening to this. This is my first attempt at recording reading a book, so any constructive criticism is welcome!

Happy garden with all the heat, humidity, and occasional rain.
I made a yummy zucchini chocolate bread for my sister's visit. Going to air fry some of what I just picked.
