Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400° F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Lightly grease the foil with cooking spray or oil.

Step 2

Combine the paprika, dried oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Stir to mix.

Step 3

Pat the chicken drumsticks dry with paper towels and place them in a large bowl.

Step 4

Drizzle the olive oil over the drumsticks and toss to coat.

Step 5

Sprinkle the seasonings evenly over the chicken and toss to coat all of the chicken with the seasonings.

Step 6

Place drumsticks in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet with a bit of room in between each piece of chicken. Bake for 40-45 minutes, turning the drumsticks over halfway through the cooking time, until the chicken is cooked through to at least 165° F when measured with an instant read thermometer. (I find that chicken legs are best when cooked to 175° F.)

Step 7

Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
