These chicken drumsticks are packed with flavor yet they are easy to prepare. The addition of baking powder will help crisp up the skin. I prefer to make my own Cajun spice mix but feel free to use store-bought Cajun mix.
Ingredients
- aluminum foil
- 6 chicken drumsticks
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
Seasoning
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon dried basil
- ¼ teaspoon ground thyme
- ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
- ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking pan with aluminum foil.
Step 2
Pat drumsticks with paper towels until dry.
Step 3
Combine baking powder, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, basil, thyme, oregano, cumin and cayenne pepper in a medium bowl. Add melted butter and stir until combined. Add drumsticks and toss until fully coated. Place drumsticks into the prepared baking pan.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until drumsticks are no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Cook’s Notes:
To achieve a darker char, place drumsticks under the broiler for 3 to 4 minutes after baking.
