Simple chicken drumstick recipe, that’s oven baked. The chicken is first poached to separate the skin helping it crisp up. The drumsticks are slow cooked to maintain juiciness, then cranked up for that delicious roasted crispy skin we all love.
So simple to make using basic spices and a little thyme.
Enjoy these extra crispy Roasted Chicken Drumsticks for any occasion.
Boil some water in a large pot and preheat oven to 200°F – 90°C
Once water is boiling, add the drumsticks to the water bring back to the boil and leave to poach two minutes. Remove drumsticks and place on a rack to dry. Once cooled, pat dry with paper towel.
In a mixing bowl, add and mix the dried thyme, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt and white pepper.
Evenly coat the chicken in olive oil, then sprinkle the dry mix over chicken. (You can also do it over the spice mix bowl while holding and rotating the drumstick) Place over rack and in oven for 30 minutes at 200°F – 90°C. After 30 minutes, crank up the oven heat to 375°F – 190°C until nicely roasted.
