INGREDIENTS

2 large chicken drumsticks

0.25 cup cooked jasmine rice

0.5 tsp extra virgin olive oil

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.5 tsp garlic powder

0.5 tsp dried oregano

1 tbsp fresh parsley

1 tsp lemon juice

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 2

  Pat the chicken drumsticks thoroughly dry with paper towels to ensure the skin achieves maximum crispiness during roasting.

• 3

  In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano.

• 4

  Brush or rub the oil and spice mixture over all sides of the chicken drumsticks until they are evenly coated.

• 5

  Arrange the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the skin is golden-brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 6

  While the chicken is finishing, place the warm cooked jasmine rice in a bowl and fluff it gently with a fork.

• 7

  Finely chop the fresh parsley and fold it into the rice along with the lemon juice until well incorporated.

• 8

  Plate the crispy chicken drumsticks alongside the herbed rice and serve immediately while hot.
