Fremgangsmåde

Trin for trin

1
Using a sharp knife, make 2-3 deep slits into each chicken drumstick to allow the marinade to penetrate.
Ca. 5 min.
2
In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, grated ginger, minced garlic, lemon juice, garam masala, turmeric powder, cumin powder, chili powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and optional red food coloring.
Ca. 5 min.
Kokkens note: Mix thoroughly to form a smooth marinade.
3
Add the chicken drumsticks to the marinade, ensuring each piece is fully coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, for best flavor.
Ca. 5 min.
Kokkens note: The longer the chicken marinates, the more tender and flavorful it will be.
4
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top.
Ca. 5 min.
Kokkens note: The wire rack allows air to circulate around the chicken for even cooking and browning.
5
Arrange the marinated chicken drumsticks on the wire rack, discarding any excess marinade.
Ca. 2 min.
6
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 74°C (165°F) and the skin is slightly charred.
Ca. 30 min.
Kokkens note: You can broil for the last 2-3 minutes for extra charring, watching carefully to prevent burning.
7
Remove the chicken from the oven and brush lightly with olive oil for a glossy finish.
Ca. 1 min.
8
Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
Ca. 1 min.
Kokkens note: Serve hot with naan bread, rice, or a fresh salad.
