Lemon Garlic Roasted Chicken Drumsticks

In a large bowl, combine garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, zest, herbs, salt, and pepper.

Add the drumsticks and toss to coat evenly. Let marinate for 15–30 minutes if time allows.

Arrange drumsticks in a baking dish or on a foil-lined tray. Pour any remaining marinade over them.

Bake for 35–40 minutes, turning halfway, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temp: 165°F / 74°C).

Garnish with lemon wedges and fresh herbs if desired. Serve hot!

 Chef’s Notes

Add red pepper flakes for a little heat!

Marinating overnight intensifies the flavor even more.

Serve with roasted veggies, rice, or a fresh salad for a full meal.”
