Baked Chicken Legs (Drumsticks)
Tender, juicy Baked Chicken Legs that are simply seasoned! The skin is extra crispy and the meat is always moist.

2 lbs chicken legs skin on
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
5 cloves garlic minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Whisk together all the ingredients, except for the chicken.
Place the chicken legs into a large bowl, along with the marinade ingredients, and use your hands to mix into it, until coated.
Transfer the chicken legs onto the lined pan and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165F.
