Oven Baked Chicken Drumsticks

• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp onion powder
• 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1/4 tsp dried oregano
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
• 1.75 lbs. chicken drumsticks (6 pieces)
• 2 Tbsp cooking oil*

‍

• Preheat the oven to 425ºF. Combine the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, oregano, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
• Place the chicken drumsticks in a bowl and drizzle the cooking oil over top. Sprinkle the prepared seasoning over the drumsticks, then toss until they're evenly coated in oil and spices.
• Place the seasoned drumsticks on a baking sheet with enough space around each so they're not touching. You can line the baking sheet with foil or parchment for easier cleanup, if desired.
• Transfer the chicken to the oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 175ºF, flipping the drumsticks once half-way through. Serve hot.
