Keto Seven Spice Chicken Drumsticks
For a simple lunch or dinner entree, these chicken drumsticks come together in a snap. Not to be confused with the store-bought seasoning, the seven spices flavoring this chicken are garlic, paprika, cayenne, mustard powder, and oregano (in addition to salt and pepper). A short marinade time makes life just that much simpler!
How to Make It
Step 1
Prepare the drunk sticks by removing the skin if necessary. Then, slice 2-3 cuts across the top of each leg.
Step 2
In a bowl, combine all the remaining ingredients. You will need up to ¼ cup of olive oil to create this marinade, but not all the olive oil will be consumed.
Step 3
Place the chicken drum sticks and marinade in a large ziploc bag. Spread the marinade around in the bag until the chicken is completely coated. Roll the bag up and let the chicken marinate for 1 hour.
Step 4
After marinating, preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray a glass baking dish with pan spray and place the chicken legs in the dish. You can pour any extra marinade over the chicken to get all the spices.
Step 5
Bake the dish for 45 minutes. The outside should be slightly crisp, golden, and a meat thermometer should read 175 degrees internally.
