🍗 Ingredients (Serves 4–5)

For the Chicken

• 10–12 chicken drumsticks
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp black pepper
• ½ tsp chili flakes (optional)

For the Garlic Butter Sauce

• 6 tbsp melted butter
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp fresh dill or thyme (optional)
• Juice of ½ lemon

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Season the Chicken

Pat the drumsticks dry with paper towels.

In a bowl, mix olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and chili flakes.

Add the chicken and toss to coat evenly.

2. Roast the Drumsticks

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Arrange the drumsticks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Roast for 35–45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and fully cooked.

3. Make the Garlic Butter Sauce

While the chicken roasts, combine melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, lemon juice, and dill or thyme in a small bowl.

4. Finish with Garlic Butter

Brush the hot drumsticks generously with the garlic butter mixture.

Return to the oven for another 5 minutes to let the glaze set.

5. Serve & Enjoy

Drizzle extra garlic butter over the top before serving.

Perfect with rice, mashed potatoes, or warm crusty bread.
