Directions

  1. 1Pat the cleaned chicken drumsticks dry with kitchen towels.
  2. 2Add chicken stock cube, vegetable seasoning, curry powder, smoked paprika powder, garlic powder, black pepper powder, a little salt, bay leaves, whole rosemary, and green seasoning mix to the chicken.
  3. 3Add olive oil to the chicken and mix all ingredients together ensuring each drumstick is perfectly coated.
  4. 4Clean the edges of the bowl, cover it with cling film, and set it in the fridge for about two hours, or overnight if time allows, for marination.
  5. 5Line a baking tray with foil and coat it with olive oil to prevent the chicken from sticking.
  6. 6Arrange the marinated chicken drumsticks on the baking tray, ensuring they are not too close to each other to allow for crisping.
  7. 7Grill the chicken in the oven at 200 degrees Celsius for about 25 minutes.
  8. 8Turn the chicken over to grill the other side to perfection.
  9. 9Pop the chicken back into the oven for another 15 minutes, keeping a close eye on it as grilling times may vary depending on oven strength.
