Ingredients
- 8 chicken drumsticks
- 1 cup BBQ sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Make the seasoning mix: In a large bowl, stir together olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Coat the drumsticks: Add the chicken to the bowl and toss until every piece is evenly coated.
- Arrange for even cooking: Place drumsticks on the prepared baking sheet with a little space between them.
- Sauce them up: Brush BBQ sauce generously over each drumstick.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.

Notes
For best texture, use a thermometer to ensure chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) at the thickest part.
