Preparation

Step 1

In a blender, combine all ingredients except the chicken. Pour the marinade in a ziplock bag and add the chicken drumsticks. Leave to marinate in the fridge for at least an hour to overnight, turning the bag occasionally.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Lightly spray a large baking dish with cooking spray. Take the drumsticks out of the marinade and arrange in the dish in a single layer, without touching each other. Roast for about 40 minutes or until cooked through and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork. If they need a bit more color, turn on the broiler for a minute or two and watch them closely.

Serve with rice, quinoa or steamed veggies. Garnish with additional cilantro, if desired. Enjoy!
