I love having the weekends to take my time and prepare a meal from start to finish, I find it so satisfying-even more so when it turns out tasting so good. I purchased some drumsticks from the store and had in mind to marinate them. I found a recipe but adapted it to what I had/my liking. It was supposed to be all lemon juice but I didn’t have enough so I added a lime and an orange. Here it goes…
1/3 cup citrus juice (I used lemon/lime/orange)
2 TBSP zest (lemon/lime)
2 TBSP thyme (from my garden)
1 TBSP rosemary (from my garden)
2 cloves of crushed garlic
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp crushed red pepper
Whisk all the ingredients together in a bowl
Cut slices into the chicken pieces (I used 6 drumsticks with this recipe) and add chicken/marinade to plastic bag and let sit in refrigerator for 2 hours
Cook at 425 degrees until the internal temp of the chicken is 160 degrees F (it took about 45 mins for me)
I served with rice, arugula salad, and green beans
Enjoy!
