Best Baked Cajun Chicken Drumsticks Recipes
CAJUN CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS
These chicken drumsticks are packed with flavor yet they are easy to prepare. The addition of baking powder will help crisp up the skin. I prefer to make my own Cajun spice mix but feel free to use store-bought Cajun mix.

Change the flavourings as you like for these chicken drumsticks - we've gone for Cajun spice but curry powder, ras el hanout or black pepper would also work

SIMPLE BAKED CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS
I wanted a basic way to cook drumsticks since they are cheaper than the breasts. I didn't want alot of spice or sauce on it so if you are looking that, this is not the recipe for you. We found it just right for us, the flavor of the chicken really comes through. I served with corn and twice baked potato casserole.
