Ingredients for Grilled Lemon Pepper Chicken Drumsticks Recipe

  • 1/4 Large lemons
  • 0.03 cup Extra virgin olive oil
  • 0.13 teaspoon Lemon pepper seasoning
  • 0.06 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 0.13 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1 Chicken drumsticks

Directions: Grilled Lemon Pepper Chicken Drumsticks Recipe

Cooking Directions

  • Squeeze the juice from the lemons into a bowl. Add oil, lemon pepper, garlic powder and salt and whisk until well combined.
  • Pour into a plastic bag and add chicken. Seal the bag and shake well until the drumsticks are well coated with the marinade.
  • Refrigerate the chicken until you're ready to cook and remove it from the refrigerator 15-20 minutes prior to cooking. Spray the grill with cooking spray and preheat it to medium-high heat. Cook the drumsticks for around 15 minutes, turning them often.
  • The cooking time will vary based on your grill and the size of the drumsticks. You'll want to have a really nice char on every side.
  • Rest the chicken for 10 minutes and serve immediately after.

Cooking Tips

  • Pull the chicken out of the fridge a food 15-20 minute before grilling to bring it a bit closer to room temp.
  • Don't be afraid to get a nice char on the drumsticks. Grilled lemon pepper drumsticks benefit from having perfectly crispy skin while still maintaining their nice tender meat inside.
  • Like any other meat, let it rest for 5-10 minutes before digging in to redistribute all those delicious juices.

Serving and Storage

  • Pour into a plastic bag and add chicken.
  • Reheat grilled lemon pepper chicken drumsticks before serving.
