Yes, you can subsitute the meat from chicken drumsticks in recipes that call for boneless, skinless chicken. Usually those recipes are referring to breast meat rather than any other part of the chicken.

Like someone else already said, stripping the meat from thighs would be a lot easier than doing the same with drumsticks. Of course, if you already have the drumsticks, go for it.

One thing that you may want to do is to slightly reduce the amount of fat that the recipe calls for as dark meat has more saturated fat than white meat. You may also be surprised to find that other than the fat difference, dark meat has more vitamins, zinc and omegas 3 & 6!
