Ingredients

• 8 pieces chicken drumsticks
• 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons hot sauce
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine Dijon mustard, hot sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, honey, salt, black pepper, and olive oil. Mix until fully combined to form a marinade.

Step 3

Pat the chicken drumsticks dry with a paper towel. Add them to the mixing bowl and toss until all the drumsticks are evenly coated with the marinade.

Step 4

Arrange the drumsticks on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching each other.

Step 5

Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, turning the drumsticks halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.

Step 6

Check that the internal temperature of the drumsticks reaches 165°F (74°C) to ensure they are fully cooked.

Step 7

Once the drumsticks are done, remove them from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes.

Step 8

Optional: Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the drumsticks for added flavor and presentation.

Step 9

Serve warm with your favorite side dishes like mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or a green salad.
