  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika, divided
  • 2 teaspoons mild curry powder
  • 1 tablespoon French mustard
  • 1/4 cup butter, divided
  • 8 chicken legs
  • 1 cup plain flour

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Devil Mixture:

    • In a mixing bowl, combine mustard powder, half of the salt, half of the black pepper, half of the cayenne pepper, half of the paprika, mild curry powder, and French mustard.
    • Mix well until it forms a smooth paste.
    • Add half of the butter to the paste and continue to work it until smooth.
  2. Prepare the Chicken Legs:

    • Make 4 slits down the length of each chicken leg.
    • Spread a generous amount of the devil mixture into each slit, ensuring even distribution of flavor.
  3. Season the Flour:

    • In a shallow dish, season the flour with the remaining salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and paprika.
    • Use this seasoned flour to dust the chicken legs evenly, coating them thoroughly.
  4. Cook the Chicken Legs:

    • In a skillet or under a preheated hot broiler, melt the remaining butter.
    • Brush the melted butter over each chicken leg.
    • Place the chicken legs under the broiler and broil for approximately 6 minutes, turning occasionally to brown on all sides.
    • Baste the chicken legs with the pan juices once or twice during cooking to keep them moist and flavorful.
  5. Serve Hot:

    • Once the chicken legs are cooked through and golden brown, remove them from the broiler.
    • Serve immediately on strips of hot buttered toast for a delightful meal or snack.
