Total Time: 55 mins
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 6 (4 ounce) bone-in chicken drumsticks, with skin
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1 pinch garlic salt, or to taste
- 1 pinch seasoned salt, or to taste
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a glass or ceramic baking dish with foil.
- Spread 1/4 cup of olive oil on the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Add drumsticks in a single layer, alternating directions to fit. Top each with 1 tablespoon butter. Sprinkle with garlic salt, seasoned salt, salt, and pepper.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Brush remaining 1/4 cup oil over chicken. Continue to bake until no longer pink, and juices run clear, 10 to 15 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
