Ingredients
- 8 pieces Chicken drumsticks
- 1 cup Light beer
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine light beer, olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Step 2
Place the chicken drumsticks into the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
Step 3
Preheat your oven to broil on high. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
Step 4
Remove the drumsticks from the marinade and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Reserve about 1/4 cup of the marinade for basting.
Step 5
Place the drumsticks under the broiler, about 6 inches from the heat source. Broil for 25-30 minutes, turning the drumsticks every 10 minutes and basting with the reserved marinade, until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is crispy and lightly charred.
Step 6
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the drumsticks reaches 165°F (74°C).
Step 7
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 8
Serve hot with your favorite side dish or a light salad for a wholesome meal.
