Lemon Pepper Chicken Drumsticks are a vibrant take on classic poultry, combining zesty lemon and aromatic black pepper for a flavor-packed dish. Originating as a fusion of timeless seasoning staples, this recipe is a favorite in American cuisine but draws from global appreciation for citrusy and peppery profiles. The drumsticks are typically marinated in fresh lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, and a blend of black pepper, then roasted or baked to perfection. This dish is high in protein and rich in essential vitamins like B6 and niacin. The use of olive oil adds heart-healthy fats, while the seasoning enhances flavor without excessive sodium. However, some recipes may include butter or high-sodium seasonings, so moderation is key. Pairing with fresh salads or steamed veggies boosts its nutritional benefits, making it a wholesome, delicious choice for everyday meals.
