Baked BBQ Chicken Drumsticks
Ingredients
- 1.8 kg Free-range Chicken drumsticks about 12
- 2 tablespoons Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Onion powder
- 2 tablespoons Chili powder
- 2 tablespoons Smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon Ground ginger
- Salt
- Pepper
- Sugar-free BBQ sauce or low sugar
Method
In a large mixing bowl, combine the drumsticks with garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, paprika, ginger, salt, and pepper. Use clean hands to coat the chicken thoroughly with the seasoning.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavours to infuse.
While the chicken marinates, preheat the oven to 180°C. If preferred, line a roasting tin with aluminium foil for easier cleaning.
Arrange the drumsticks on a wire rack placed inside the prepared roasting tin, leaving space between each piece for even cooking.
Bake in the centre of the oven for 40–50 minutes, turning the drumsticks halfway through.
Remove from the oven and brush each drumstick generously with BBQ sauce. Return to the oven for a further 10–15 minutes, then turn and repeat the process.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
