Ingredients

  • 3 lb. chicken drumsticks, with skin (about 10 pieces)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tablespoon paprika
  • 1/2 tablespoon yellow curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)

Directions

  1. 1

    Using a paper towel, pat dry the chicken drumsticks. Place them into a ziploc bag.

  2. 2

    In a small mixing bowl, combine oil, garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, curry powder, Worcestershire sauce and balsamic vinegar and mix well with a spoon until smooth. Add the marinade into the ziploc bag and toss to combine with the chicken. Press the air out of the bag and seal tightly. Press the marinade around the chicken thighs to fully coat. Place the ziploc bag in the refrigerator and marinate for at least 1 hour, up to overnight.

    Preheat the oven to 400F.

  4. 4

    Arrange the marinated chicken drumsticks on a large half sheet baking pan and bake for 40-45 minutes, turning over once halfway through baking, until the skin is crispy and the internal temperature for the chicken reaches 165 F as read on a meat thermometer.

  5. 5

    Let the drumsticks cool for 5 minutes, then garnish with parsley and serve.
