• Season evenly with the garlic salt and freshly ground black pepper. If desired, add a little paprika powder for a subtle flavor and color.
2. Melt the butter:
Melt the butter in a small saucepan or in the microwave.
Pour the melted butter evenly over the chicken drumsticks. This will ensure crispy skin and juicy meat later.
3. Bake:
Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
Place the chicken drumsticks in a baking dish or on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for about 40-50 minutes, until the chicken skin is golden brown and crispy. Baste the drumsticks occasionally with the pan juices to keep them moist.
4. Serve:
Once the drumsticks are cooked, remove them from the oven and garnish with fresh herbs such as thyme or rosemary, if desired.
Serve with your favorite side dishes.
Conclusion:
This crispy butter chicken is a simple yet impressively flavorful dish that is a hit with both family and guests. The combination of flavorful butter and crispy skin makes it an irresistible treat!
