Herb Grilled Chicken Drumsticks

Mediterranean roasted chicken drumsticks

Ingredients:

• 6–8 chicken drumsticks or chicken wings

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• 2 garlic cloves, minced

• Juice of ½ lemon

• Fresh or dried rosemary, thyme, oregano (to taste)

• 1 tsp salt

• 1 tsp black tea seasoning

• Black pepper, to taste

• (Optional) paprika or cumin, for extra flavor

Instructions:

1. Marinate the Chicken
   Wash the chicken and prick with a fork to help absorb flavors.
   In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, herbs, black tea seasoning, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken evenly.
   Marinate for at least 30 minutes (preferably 2+ hours in the fridge).

2. Roast
   Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).
   Place chicken on a baking rack or tray and roast for 30–35 minutes, turning halfway through.
   (Alternatively, grill over charcoal or pan-sear for a smokier flavor.)

3. Serve
   Roast until golden and crispy on the outside, fully cooked inside.
   Serve with cucumber slices, fresh greens, or dipping sauce.

Tips:

• For extra crispiness, brush the chicken with a little oil before roasting.

• Add paprika for smokiness or cumin for a Middle Eastern twist.
