Lemon Garlic Chicken Drumsticks Recipes

Steps:

• Put the chicken legs in a large resealable bag, squeeze in the juice of the lemons and throw in the rinds as well. Add the olive oil, garlic and some salt and pepper, seal the bag and toss around. Place in the fridge to marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 6 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place the chicken legs on a baking sheet and roast until the juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Line shallow baking pan with foil; generously spray foil with cooking spray. In small bowl, mix garlic, cumin and lemon juice.
• Place chicken in large resealable food-storage plastic bag. Add in lemon juice mixture; shake to evenly coat chicken. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes to marinate.
• Heat oven to 350°F. Place chicken in baking pan. If desired, cut 1 of the lemons into 8 wedges and place among chicken in pan for extra moisture and aroma during baking. Cover pan with foil.
• Bake 1 hour. If baking with skin on the chicken, remove foil after baking 1 hour and broil 2 to 5 minutes or until garlic or top of skin turns golden brown.
• Meanwhile, cut remaining 2 lemons into 8 slices each.
• Before serving, sprinkle chicken with parsley. Serve each chicken drumstick with 1 lemon slice.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
• Season chicken with salt and pepper; place in the melted butter. Cook chicken, flipping frequently, until browned, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon garlic powder over chicken; flip and sprinkle 1 tablespoon garlic powder on second side. Cook each side for 2 minutes.
• Pour lemon juice over each side of chicken and cook until no longer pink in the center, 5 to 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a 9x13-inch baking pan, combine chicken, bell pepper, onion, and garlic; squeeze the juice of one lemon evenly over chicken and vegetables.
• Mix together 1 teaspoon lemon zest, oregano, lemon pepper and paprika.
• Lightly coat all with cooking spray and bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes.
• Turn chicken and cook 30-40 minutes longer.
• or until chicken is no longer pink in center.
• When chicken is done, place on serving platter; add juice of the remaining lemon to vegetables and pan drippings.
• Stir to blend, scraping bottom and sides of pan; spoon mixture over chicken and serve.

Steps:

• 1. Rinse the chicken and pat dry.
• 2. Combine the lemon zest and juice, thyme, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add the drumsticks and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours, or overnight.
• 3. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• 4. Arrange the drumsticks in a shallow roasting dish to fit (use two dishes to avoid crowding). Pour any marinade over the chicken and bake, basting occasionally, until the drumsticks are cooked through and golden brown, about 1 1/4 hours.
• 5. If the drumsticks have not browned enough, place them under the broiler, 4 inches from the heat source, for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until browned, watching carefully.
• 6. Spoon the orzo or rice on a platter and arrange the drumsticks on top. Pour the chicken pan juices into a small saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until thickened. Pour over the chicken and sprinkle with parsley. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, oregano, parsley, and pepper in a gallon-size resealable plastic bag. Add chicken drumsticks; turn to coat evenly. Seal bag, squeezing out all the air.
• Let chicken marinate in the refrigerator, at least 2 hours and preferably overnight.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Let chicken come to room temperature, about 25 minutes. Arrange on the baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until browned, about 25 minutes. Flip chicken and baste with juices; continue cooking until browned on the second side, 10 to 15 minutes more.
• Cover chicken with aluminum foil. Let stand before serving, about 5 minutes.
