Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup.
Prepare the Drumsticks:
Pat the chicken drumsticks dry with paper towels. This helps to get the skin crispy.
Brush or rub the drumsticks with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.
Season and Flavor:
Classic Herb: In a small bowl, mix together rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, and onion powder. Rub this mixture over the drumsticks.
Spicy BBQ: Brush the drumsticks with barbecue sauce. In a small bowl, mix together smoked paprika and cayenne pepper, then sprinkle over the drumsticks.
Lemon Garlic: In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic powder, and oregano. Rub or brush this mixture onto the drumsticks.
Honey Mustard: In a small bowl, mix honey, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and thyme. Brush this mixture over the drumsticks.
