Chicken Drumsticks Recipe
These Chicken Drumsticks Recipe are a classic. Simple to make and budget friendly. I use a few seasonings and marinate overnight. They come out perfect each time.
Servings: 6 drumsticks
Ingredients
- 6 chicken drumsticks
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Add chicken drumsticks into a large freezer bag.
- Place oil and Worcestershire sauce in a mixing bowl. Whisk in all remaining ingredients. Pour this over your chicken. Marinate overnight for best results or cook immediately.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Prepare a dish with aluminum foil. Pour chicken into the dish and bake for 30-40 minutes or until fully cooked. Time will vary deepening on the size of your chicken. Check on smaller chicken drumsticks around 20 minutes.
Notes
Can I use frozen drumsticks?
Frozen drumsticks are fine to use, as long as you thaw them out. So ideally no, you do not want to use frozen drumsticks.
If they thaw during the baking your seasoning and sauce will get watered down and result in your chicken not being as flavorful. I prefer to use fresh drumsticks for this.
If frozen drumsticks are the only thing you have, make sure they are fully thawed and then pat them dry to remove and excess water.
