Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

olive oil, to coat bottom of pan
8 chicken drumsticks, rinsed, patted dry
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons icing sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon chili powder (if you like food very spicy, up to 1 1/2 tsps)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder or 3/4 teaspoon garlic granules
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper

Steps:

Preheat oven to 440°F (225C).
Pour enough olive oil into a foil-lined 9 X 13-inch baking pan to just coat bottom.
Mix flour, icing sugar, chili powder, salt, oregano, basil, garlic powder, cumin, ginger and ground pepper in a heavy-duty plastic bag; shake chicken pieces in the bag, a few at a time, until evenly coated. Give chicken a sharp rap against the side of bag when removing to shake off excess coating.
Place the drumsticks in the olive oil; bake 30 minutes. Turn drumsticks and bake 15 minutes more until pieces are fork-tender.
Enjoy!
