List of Ingredients




1 1/2 lb baking potatoes, scrubbed and cut lengthwise in 1/2-in.-thick sticks
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
3 Tbsp light-brown sugar
2 tsp each chili powder and freshly grated orange peel
1 tsp salt
8 chicken drumsticks (2 1/4 lb)
1/4 tsp pepper



Recipe



1. Position racks to divide oven in thirds. Heat to 450°F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with foil (for easy cleanup). Set a wire rack on 1 sheet; coat rack well with nonstick spray.

2. Put potatoes and oil in a large bowl; toss potatoes to coat. Place on prepared rack, overlapping if necessary. Bake on top oven rack 10 minutes.

3. Meanwhile mix sugar, chili powder, orange peel and 1/2 tsp salt in a large plastic ziptop bag. Add drumsticks, seal bag and shake until chicken is coated. Put on other baking sheet.

4. Place chicken on lower oven rack and bake 25 to 30 minutes or until potatoes are tinged golden brown and chicken juices run clear when pierced with fork. Drizzle any juices in baking sheet over the chicken. Sprinkle potatoes with remaining 1/2 tsp salt and the pepper.
