This Smothered Chicken Drumsticks Dinner is the definition of Southern-style comfort. Tender, juicy drumsticks are pan-seared and then simmered in a rich onion gravy until they’re fall-off-the-bone good. Paired with buttery mashed potatoes and sweet green peas, this meal is hearty, flavorful, and soul-warming.
