Best Chicken Drumsticks Recipe

Baked to perfection, drumsticks will come out crispy yet deliciously juicy requiring minimal prep work. Simply wash, season and then place in the oven to bake until golden brown. Remaining tender on the inside while crispy on the outside, it’s the best combination of texture.
