Chicken Drumsticks with Norway Lobsters

Chicken & turkey
Be the first to rate it!

Today we're making chicken drumsticks with Norway lobsters (cigalas), a surf-and-turf recipe with a rich sauce that practically begs for good bread to dip in. We combine the chicken with the sweet seafood flavor of the lobsters and a homemade picada, letting slow cooking do all the work to create a dish full of flavor.
