Spicy Roasted Chicken Drumsticks

Spicy Roasted Chicken Drumsticks

We have been eating a lot of drumsticks around my house lately because my kids are “over chicken”. It seems that drumsticks are the only part of a chicken that they seem to enjoy, so drumsticks it is. I made these spicy roasted chicken drumsticks and they were a hit with all of us. The chicken was quite simple to make, smelled delicious while it roasted, and tasted moist, juicy, and tasty. I served this chicken with the Basmati Rice with Garlic, Pine Nuts, and Fresh Parsley, and some asparagus for a healthy and delicious dinner that we all liked.
