Ingredients
 

For the Cowboy Caviar

  • 400g can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 400g can black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
  • 8 ripe fresh chopped tomatoes
  • 1 small jalapeno, seeded and finely diced
  • 285g can cup corn sweetcorn
  • 1 medium avocado, roughly chopped
  • 1 orange pepper, seeded and finely diced
  • 2 small red onions, finely diced
  • 6 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped
  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • juice 3 limes
  • 2 tbsp runny honey
  • pinch chilli powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 pinch salt and pepper to taste
  • small fresh tortillas
  • small masa tortillas
  • sour cream
  • siracha

For the Drumsticks

  • 12 chicken drumsticks
  • 2 tbsp paprika, I think smoked is best
  • 2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 4 tsp brown sugar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp celery salt
  • 2 tsp chilli powder
  • 3 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp dry English mustard
  • 2 tsp ground cumin

Instructions
 

  • Place the beans, black-eyed peas, tomatoes, jalapeno, corn, avocado, bell pepper, onion and cilantro in a large bowl.
  • Whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, honey, chilli powder, cumin, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
  • Pour the dressing over the bean mixture and toss gently to coat. Leave to marinate for 20 minutes.
  • Place the drumsticks on the chopping board.
  • With a sharp knife, chop the knuckle off, keeping a nice clean bone.
  • Place in a bowl and dust with the rub above.
  • Heat a large frying pan, then add a little vegetable oil.
  • Add the drumsticks and gently brown, then cover with a tight-fitting lid and then turn the heat right down and gently cook for 20 minutes until cooked so the meat will easily come away from the bone. It may take a little longer, but don’t rush; it’s worth the wait.
  • Once cooked, serve with the caviar and tortillas.
