Mediterranean Herb-Crusted Chicken Drumsticks

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, chopped fresh oregano, chopped fresh parsley, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well to create a marinade.

3. 3

   Add the chicken drumsticks to the bowl and toss to coat them thoroughly with the marinade. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours for more flavor).

4. 4

   In a shallow dish, combine the panko breadcrumbs and olive oil. Mix until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated with the oil.

5. 5

   Remove each drumstick from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off, and roll it in the panko mixture to coat evenly.

6. 6

   Place the coated drumsticks on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart.

7. 7

   Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is golden and crispy. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).

8. 8

   Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Mediterranean Herb-Crusted Chicken Drumsticks!
