Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Step 2

Place drumsticks onto a paper towel and pat them dry, then season with salt and pepper on all sides.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the flour, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika and mix to combine.

Step 4

In a ziplock bag or large bowl, toss half of the drumsticks and half of the flour mixture together until the chicken is coated. Repeat with the rest of the drumsticks and flour mixture.

Step 5

Place the floured chicken onto a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and add a 1/2 tablespoon slice of butter onto the top of each drumstick.

Step 6

Bake for about 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and brush the melted butter on over the drumsticks. Return to the oven and bake for about 10 more minutes, or until the drumsticks are golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.

Step 7

Remove the drumsticks from the oven and cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
