Buttermilk and garlic marinated roast chicken drumsticks - irresistibly moist and tender from an overnight soak.
Ingredients:
  • 6 chicken drumsticks
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 0.25 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon crushed black peppercorns
  • 1 tablespoon sea salt (such as Maldon®)
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
  • 3 cloves garlic, bruised and skins removed
  • 0.5 teaspoon paprika
  • 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 3 drops liquid smoke, or to taste
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions:
  • Place chicken drumsticks in a large resealable freezer bag with buttermilk, 1/4 cup oil, maple syrup, peppercorns, salt, taco seasoning, garlic, paprika, cayenne pepper, and liquid smoke. Seal the bag and massage to coat the drumsticks well. Marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to a toasty 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) and elegantly line a roasting pan with aluminum foil.
  • Take the drumsticks out of the marinade, let the excess marinade drip off, and transfer them to the pan. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of oil over the drumsticks and discard the extra marinade.
  • Roast in the oven until the drumsticks are beautifully golden brown, approximately 30 minutes.
