Ingredients
Scale
3 pounds chicken drumsticks
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 packet sazon seasoning
2 tablespoons sofrito (optional)
Instructions
- Rinse the chicken drumsticks and pat them dry with paper towels.
- In a large bowl, combine the garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and sazon seasoning.
- Add the chicken drumsticks to the bowl and toss well to coat them evenly with the seasoning.
- If using sofrito, add it to the bowl and rub it into the chicken so the flavors are well distributed.
- Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator. For deeper flavor, marinate for up to 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Arrange the seasoned drumsticks on a baking sheet or in a baking dish in a single layer.
- Bake for 40–45 minutes, turning once halfway through cooking, until the chicken is fully cooked and the skin is golden.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
