Oven-baked drumsticks rubbed with garlic and paprika, then basted in sweet barbecue sauce until sticky and caramelized. An easy, hands-off dinner the whole family will reach for.
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with foil.
Step 2
Pat the chicken drumsticks dry and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, and sprinkle evenly over the drumsticks, turning to coat all sides.
Step 4
Bake the drumsticks for 20 minutes.
Step 5
Meanwhile, mix the bbq sauce and brown sugar together in a small bowl.
Step 6
Remove the drumsticks from the oven, brush generously with the bbq sauce mixture, and return to the oven.
Step 7
Continue baking, brushing with more sauce every 10 minutes, until the chicken is no longer pink and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, about 20-25 more minutes.
Step 8
Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
