These will change your life! and they're clean!
10 chicken drumsticks
half a lemon (or I use 3-4 Tbsp lemon juice)
1-2 tsp. olive oil
Mixture 1:
1 tsp Oregano
1 tsp. Kosher Salt
1/2 tsp. Cumin
Mixture 2:
4 Tbsp olive oil
3 garlic cloves, pressed (or finely minced)
1 tsp. basil
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 c. Parmesan (freshly grated is super yummy but not necessary)
some black pepper (I like several shakes - think Grandpa Dick)
Rinse and pat dry drumsticks. Arrange in a foil lined baking dish. Drizzle lemon juice and olive oil over the tops. Then sprinkle a seasoning mix of the oregano, salt and cumin ove the tops of all the drumsticks. Stick in a 425 oven for 40 min., flipping over the drumsticks half-way through. While the drumsticks are cooking, make another sauce of the olive oil, garlic, basil, salt, parmesan, and pepper. When the 40 min are up, remove the chicken from the oven, flip back over, and evenly spoon the mixture over the chicken. Place back in oven for an additional 20-30 min. depending on thickness. You'll know they're done when you cut into the thickest part of one of the drumsticks and it's no longer pink.
I like to serve them with a veggie like sweet potatoes, zucchini or broccoli.
Favorite recipe! Made this several times now. Go And!
