🔥 Drumsticks on potatoes with cheese and bacon
The drumsticks are prepared in a special way: they are arranged on halved potatoes, wrapped in smoky bacon, and sit on a layer of spicy Gouda. This dish is perfect for anyone who has a passion for cheese and appreciates juicy chicken.
Ingredients:
Drumsticks (chicken thighs)
Rub of your choice
Large potatoes
Bacon
Gouda, grated
Preparation:
Marinate the drumsticks with a rub of your choice.
Halve the potatoes lengthwise.
Insert 3 toothpicks into each halved potato.
Roll up the bacon and attach it to the toothpicks.
Cover the baking dish with about 1.5 cm of grated Gouda.
Place the prepared potatoes in the dish, place the marinated drumsticks on top and distribute them.
Grilling:
Prepare the grill for 180 degrees indirect heat.
If possible, place a second deflector plate under the baking dish.
Grill the drumsticks for about 45–60 minutes until they are nicely juicy.
🍄 Stuffed mushrooms with pecans and French soft cheese
These mushrooms are a perfect complement to the drumsticks. Stuffed with creamy soft cheese, nutty pecans, and a hint of garlic, they are simply irresistible!
Ingredients:
12 large mushrooms
100 g French soft cheese
50 g cream cheese
50 g chopped pecans
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish
Preparation:
Clean the mushrooms, remove the stems, and chop them finely.
Heat the olive oil in a pan, sauté the onion and garlic, add the chopped mushroom stems, and cook until the liquid has evaporated.
Remove from heat, stir in the soft cheese, cream cheese, and chopped pecans. Season with salt and pepper.
Generously fill the mushroom caps with the filling.
About 15 minutes before the drumstick grilling time is up, place the mushrooms in the indirect heat and bake until golden brown.
Garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy!
