Keto Italian Chicken Drumsticks. I’m about out of stories regarding chicken drumsticks as this is the 4th and last one so if you are interested in the stories you will need to visit each of them. I can say one thing though, whatever keto kitchen heaven smells like, this has got to be it. Garlicky, cheesy, herby heaven. The other three keto chicken drumstick recipes include Asian, Greek, and Mexican and all of them are terrrrific. I do use my own recipe for Italian Herbs because not only it it so spot on…it has no sugar in it. But if you have your favorite Italian herbs then by all means use them. Keto Italian Chicken Drumsticks for the win. You better believe that all that fresh basil (including the garnish) was eaten. Have you ever had salted tomato with a leaf of basil on it? It’s another taste bud heaven.
