Hey there! Personally, I prefer cooking chicken drumsticks with the skin on. While removing the skin is often touted as healthier, keeping it on helps retain moisture and flavor during cooking. To make it healthier, try baking or grilling the drumsticks instead of frying. This way, you can enjoy a crispy skin while reducing excess oil.

Hey there! Personally, I like to leave the skin on chicken drumsticks when I cook 'em—it keeps things juicy and adds flavor. But if you're going for a lighter option, taking the skin off works too! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this tasty topic!

It's up to you! Keeping the skin can add flavor and texture, but removing it reduces fat. Choose based on your preference!
