Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 (4 ounce) bone-in chicken drumsticks, with skin
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 pinch garlic salt, or to taste
1 pinch seasoned salt, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a glass baking dish with aluminum foil.
  • Spread 1/4 cup of olive oil over the bottom of the prepared baking dish and line up drumsticks on top, alternating directions so that they fit. Top with 1 tablespoon of butter each, on the thick part of the chicken. Sprinkle with garlic salt, seasoned salt, salt, and pepper.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Cover chicken with remaining olive oil; continue to bake until juices run clear and chicken is no longer pink in the centers, 10 to 15 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Serve.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 c all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
6 chicken drumsticks
1/4 c butter, melted

Steps:

  • 1. Pre-heat oven to 425°
  • 2. Mix flour, salt, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder and pepper in a bowl.
  • 3. Dip chicken drumsticks into the butter; roll in flour mixture to coat.
  • 4. Arrange in an ungreased square pan (8x8x2)
  • 5. Baked uncovered until done, about 50 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Drumsticks: Select plump and evenly sized drumsticks for uniform cooking. Fresh or thawed drumsticks are ideal.
  • Proper Seasoning: Generously season the drumsticks with a blend of paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. You can adjust the measurements to suit your taste preferences.
  • Baking Temperature: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure the drumsticks cook thoroughly and develop a crispy skin.
  • Baking Time: Bake the drumsticks for 25-30 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Use a meat thermometer to accurately measure the internal temperature.
  • Baste the Drumsticks: For extra flavor and moisture, baste the drumsticks with melted butter or oil during the baking process. This helps prevent dryness and enhances the taste.
  • Crispy Skin: To achieve crispy skin, place the drumsticks on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. This allows air to circulate around the drumsticks, promoting even cooking and a crispy texture.
