  • 4 lb chicken drumsticks
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp sea salt
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp greek oregano
  • 1 tbsp sage
  • 1 tbsp basil
  • 2 tbsp garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp onion powder

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Thoroughly pat chicken dry with a paper towel.
  • In a small bowl, mix together spices, salt, and chicken.
  • Coat chicken in oil and spice mix then add lemon juice and toss to coat.
  • Let chicken marinate 30 minutes to overnight in the fridge.

  • Cook chicken for 20 minutes, then flip and turn the temperature up to 400 degrees. Cook an additional 20-25 minutes rotating every 10 minutes.
