Pappy's Chicken Legs

 FOR THREE

Pappy knew what he was doing and this main dish is perfect for affordability and a simple meal.

  • 6 chicken drumsticks, skin removed, rinsed and patted dry
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 tablespoon melted margarine
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. 

  1. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, combine paprika, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, and pepper; sprinkle evenly over chicken. 
  3. Place chicken on baking sheet and brush with margarine.
  4. Bake 40 to 45 minutes, or until no pink remains and juices run clear.

I would serve this with a side of potato (or faux potato) salad.
