Baked Chicken Drumsticks – Coated with a blend of olive oil, paprika, lemon juice, garlic and salted pepper, these crispy baked chicken drumsticks are perfect for busy weeknights that your whole family will love.
How long does it take to bake chicken chopsticks?
It depends on the heating capacity of your oven, it usually takes about 40-45 minutes to bake in a 400-degree oven or so, after 20 minutes of cooking and you’re baking at 350°F, then it takes about 50-60 minutes.
What variations can you make?
I know that by always eating the same thing we are used to that taste so it’s time to have some variations – Use dried oregano and dried rosemary instead of Italian seasoning for Greek style or Combine olive oil with 1/3 cup soy sauce, 1 teaspoon chopped ginger and garlic, 2 tablespoons honey for Asian style and Use lime juice instead of lemon juice and Substitute 1 tablespoon of chili powder for the Italian seasoning for the Mexican style.
At what temperature should we make these chicken chopsticks?
I always recommend using a meat thermometer, the safe internal temperature according to the USDA, cooked chicken should be at 165°F (74°C). Make sure you don’t touch any bones when you check the temperature or you’ll get an erroneous reading.
What to accompany these baked chicken chopsticks?
In general, I serve them with mashed potatoes, pasta salad, black beans and rice, or with vegetables on the side!
