Easy Baked Chicken Leg Drumsticks
My love for chicken drumsticks dates back to my childhood.
They were always my favorite piece of chicken. The only problem was that there were only 2 pieces per chicken. Even if I was the only one eating them, two chicken legs were never enough.
Now that I’m a big kid, I can make a whole sheet pan of them...as many as I want. Guess what? Everyone loves them!

Why this is the best chicken drumstick recipe?
EASY - It's crazy simple with only 5-minute prep. You don't need to work in a restaurant to know how to bake chicken. You just need a few instructions and helpful tips from your friend, The Kitchen Girl. Bonus!
WELL-TESTED & FAMILY-APPROVED - Kids go crazy for this chicken drumstick recipe. I can't tell you how many people have reached out to me with comments on what a lifesaver this recipe is. Big kids go crazy for chicken legs too! They love it because it's so easy to make and easier to eat by everyone in the family!
BUDGET-FRIENDLY - Baked chicken legs are ridiculously affordable! Oven-roasted chicken can be such a money saver depending on what ingredients you add to it. But, lightly seasoned, baked drumsticks don't require any special ingredients, and yet their flavor and texture somehow just satisfy everyone! Your pocketbook wins...again!
PLAN? WHAT PLAN? - You truly need minimal planning, if any, for this baked chicken recipe. Once the chicken legs are seasoned, this baby is hands-free, so you can do ALL the things while dinner is being made. It bakes in under an hour!
DIET-FRIENDLY - Oven baked chicken legs easily accommodate some of the most popular diets: low carb, keto, Whole30, and paleo.
What IS the proper cooked chicken temperature for baked chicken legs?
All chicken must reach an internal temperature of 165°F to be considered food safe.
To do this, insert a meat thermometer into the chicken legs alongside the bone.
Boneless chicken must also register 165°F on the meat thermometer to be considered food-safe.
And don't just go with your gut, especially with bone-in chicken. Use a meat thermometer to the minimum internal temperature of any chicken.
How long to bake chicken legs at different temperatures
In order to reach our #1 goal of 165° minimum internal temperature (for ALL poultry), here's a basic guideline of how long to bake chicken legs at different temperatures.
- Bake chicken legs at 425° or 400° for 20-25 minutes
- Bake chicken legs at 350° or 375° for 25-30 minutes
- Bake chicken legs at 300° or 325° for 30-40 minutes
Why bake chicken legs at different oven temperatures?
There are 3 reasons I would use different temperatures to bake chicken drumsticks (or any chicken).
#1 - TIMING - Quite simply, there are times you might want the longer baking time associated with the lower oven temperature. It's kinda like having your food babysat while you do a million other things. Alternatively, you may want to get those chicken legs on the dinner table in 25 minutes...totally doable!
#2 - OVEN SPACE - If you need to bake a side dish while the chicken legs are baking, this can be really handy. For instance, I always double down and make roasted mixed veggies, Smashed Potatoes, or Roasted Mushrooms as a chicken leg side dish. Each side dish requires a 400° oven temperature and can be baked at the same time as the chicken legs.
#3 - CRISPY SKIN - Here's the deal...the higher the oven temperature and faster the chicken legs cook, the crispier the skin.
Keep in mind that roasted vegetables take only 15 minutes at 400° while the chicken legs take 20-25 minutes. Because of this, you may need to bake the legs a few minutes longer to accommodate any loss of heat from opening and closing the oven door.
NOTE: 3 Factors affecting oven times include:
- #1 - The size of the chicken legs will affect the cooking time.
- #2 - The accuracy of your oven - I recommend to always keep an oven thermometer in your oven...and don't forget to look at it. You may need to adjust your oven temperature up, or down, depending on its inaccuracy.
- #3 - The temperature of the chicken legs when they go into the oven (i.e., Have they been sitting at room temp...or are they just out of the fridge and really cold?)
How to bake chicken leg drumsticks
Step 1: 5-MINUTE PREP
Preheat oven to 400°; add seasonings to a bowl.
Whisk until well-combined.
Pour over chicken drumsticks and toss to coat the chicken legs.
Step 2: YOU'RE READY TO BAKE
Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Place seasoned chicken legs on the baking sheet a few inches apart from each other.
Make-ahead tip: At this point, you can either bake the chicken legs or let them sit overnight and bake when you're ready. If you're baking them later, simply refrigerate the seasoned chicken in an airtight container until ready to bake.
Step 3: BAKE THE CHICKEN LEGS
Place chicken legs on the center rack in the 400°F oven and bake 20-25 minutes. Chicken legs will be golden and internal temperature (next to the bone) should register 165° with a meat thermometer.
* See full recipe below for other baking temperatures and times
How to make chicken legs crispy in the oven
If you like crispy chicken legs, baking them at a higher temperature, like 425°, will yield crispier skin than if you bake the legs at 350° (see my notes above).
No matter what temperature you use to bake the legs, you can make them crispier by finishing them in the broiler. Here's how...
At the end of the baking cycle, switch your oven from BAKE to BROIL. You get to decide whether you want to broil on HIGH or LOW because you know your oven better than I do.
To broil on HIGH, I recommend placing the oven rack in the center of the oven, so about 8" away from the flame. Broil anywhere from 2-5 minutes until the legs reach your desired level of crispiness.
To broil on LOW, you may want to adjust the oven rack to be closer to the flame. Broil anywhere from 2-5 minutes until the legs reach your desired level of crispiness.
No matter what, broiling is a delicate process. If you're not careful, you'll ruin your dinner in an instant. Ask me how I know 😉

I’m going to make these tonight.
But, your recipe timing contradicts the cooking chart that you provided.
Your recipe says: bake at 400 oven for 35-45 minutes.
Your guideline cooking chart says:
For a 400 or 425 oven, bake for 20-25 minutes.
That’s a 15-20 minute difference!
Am I misunderstanding??? Is it a typo???
Not quite sure now how long to bake them, will have to start checking after 20 minutes.
Ohhh snap! It's def 20-25 and it was totally a typo in the recipe card. You're the first person to notice that and I'm glad you brought it to my attention. I fixed the typo. Funny enough, no one has complained about overcooked chicken up to this point 🙂 Thank you so much! Cheers!
This was very good and moist. I used it as the base seasoning for my bbq chicken. My only regret is that I didn't cook it correctly to get super crispy skin.
Kids loved it!
Yay! I always love it when the kids sign off! Thanks, Melissa 🤩
Good recipe. Leave out the life story next time.
Hi Dinger, no life story here, just tips and tricks about baked chicken legs. Thanks
Thanks for the recipe but I have to admit I was totally distracted by that blue plate. Where did you get it?
Haha thanks, Jacqueline! That blue enamelware gets me every time too. I picked it up at a local antique store, which doesn't help you, but the collection is called "graniteware" 🤩
Such a simple yet so delicious and easy to make recipe. This is sure a crowd pleaser. Thank you for the detailed post and tips.
You're so welcome, Pavani! Glad you can enjoy these chicken legs 🤩
I love how simple this recipe is and that it only requires a few simple ingredient that I have in my pantry!
Thanks, Alison! Yep, baked chicken legs have a ton of flavor! Enjoy!
We love roast chicken and my kids have become pretty big fans of chicken on the bone too. We typically go for a whole chicken but I might have to try these soon to have more bone pieces - love the simple seasoning and different temperature options for flaxibility.
Thanks, Caroline! So glad your family can enjoy these! 🙂
Love this easy and delicious chicken recipe for dinner. Thanks for sharing
You're so welcome and thanks for the great feedback, Kushiglau 🤩 Baked chicken legs are def a hit on our dinner table!
For future reference do you flip your drumsticks or not
Hi Bryan, I don't. I've never found the need for it. Hope that helps 🙂 Enjoy!
Easiest, best baked chicken leg recipe I have found. Thank you. Love this site!
Thanks JB! This makes my day!! 🙂
I make these all the time. Have made them using skinless legs. Best recipe for legs ever. Thank you!
Wow Kathy! Thanks so much for the kind words 🙂
I was looking for something different to do with chicken legs and was so happy to see a Kitchen Girl recipe pop up in my search. I am making these for dinner tonight and will think of you, Traci!
Yay! Thanks so much Allie! Hope you LOVE them like we do 🙂
We love this so much, we are going to use it for our Ketcham Estate "Tasty Tuesday!"
Woot! This totally makes my day, Allie! It's one of my favorite recipes of ALL time, so I'm glad you love it too! 🙂
So simple and so delicious. The best chicken legs I've ever baked thanks to you.
Thanks for the kind words, Esther! I feel the same way about baked chicken legs, but I always love hearing it from my readers 🙂
So easy and SO DELICIOUS. It looks and tastes like it just came off the grill.
I put the chicken on a foil lined sheet pan. Easy cleanup, too!
This recipe is a keeper.
Boom! I love this feedback, Kathy! Glad you loved it and THANK YOU for taking the time to let me know 🙂
How many drummies do you recommend for 8 adults? How much seasoning? Thanks
Hi Judy, these are full-sized, chicken leg drumsticks, about 4oz each. If you're serving them as a main protein with sides, I'd plan on 2 chicken legs per person, with a couple extra legs, so 18 chicken legs. To determine seasoning, just hop back on my recipe card and adjust the 'servings' slider to 18 legs and it will tell you how much seasoning to use.
Thanks for the recipe. I was so hungry and this simple and easy recipe rescued me tonight.
You're so welcome, Mo. I feel the same way about baked chicken legs when I'm really hungry and I don't want to think about it 🙂
Fixed this for dinner tonight and I can say this recipe is a keeper. Easy & delicious........ Thanks
I'm so glad you enjoyed this one, Connie! Baked chicken legs are one of my favs, for sure 🙂 Thanks for taking the time to comment!
Hi Traci,
I thought you might like to know that my kids asked me to make your Simple Baked Chicken Leg drumsticks again. It was a big hit with them the last time - AND with me! I finally became interested in spending time in the kitchen about 2 years ago at the ripe age of 42. (Better late than never) Having simple go to recipes is my JAM, so I am thrilled to have found your site! Thank you for sharing your talents!
Smiles,
Melissa
Melissa, this makes my whole week! I love it when this recipe is popular with the kiddos. Thank you SO much for letting me know!
Ooooh I could see these being a huge hit for a football party! They look so easy and I love how you laid out all the steps to make them just right. Such a great recipe!
Thanks so much Trish! These are SO football ready! 🙂
Growing up, the chicken legs always went to my older siblings. Now, they go to my kids. I, like you, am always sad that there are only two. I see the chicken legs in the grocery store, but rarely think to buy a pack. Now I need to so I can use this recipe (and get that deepened yum factor!)
Thanks, and I hear ya, Mackenzie. Yes...go for the pack of legs! 🙂
So easy and so yummy!!!
Thanks Tammy! Those are my favorite words! 🙂
I love how simple but delicious this recipe is! It's so much easier to bake a ton of drumsticks in the oven when having guests over than handling it on the stove-top. I'm also a fan of mixing paprika with garlic and it's almost always my go-to seasoning combo.
Thanks Carmy! As for that spice combo, great minds... 😉
Love the simplicity of this dish. Chicken legs have been a favorite of mine since I was a toddler and this preparation is perfection. Love the suggestion of using a large plastic bag for prepping the poultry. You've got me craving the roasted chicken legs. Printing recipe now. Thanks for the awesome recipe and inspiration!
Thanks so much Kris! I know you'll enjoy this recipe 🙂
Sign. Me. UP. I love how simple this recipe is, yet it's still so flavor-packed. And adding a spritz of lemon at the end, before mowing down, just adds SO MUCH. It's hard to bear garlicky, salty, and lemony goodness like that 🙂
Haha thanks Dana! I just signed you up 😉
This is a great recipe to make when you're having lots of people over. Of course you can make it just for one but I like the convenience of having the oven do all the work. Your seasonings are perfect for the drumsticks. Dark meat is our favorite -- you can't dry it out and the legs are so easy to pick up and nibble on. In January we anticipate making this recipe several times.
Yay thanks Marisa! So glad to hear it and I know you'll love those seasonings 🙂
Definitely bookmarking these for the new year! My husband would love them... So would I... And I especially love how easy they are!
Awesome Sues, baked chicken legs really are the easiest! Hope you love them 🙂
Chicken is my comfort food, so there's always several packages in my freezer at the ready. Love the dark meat too because it stays so moist and flavorful -- I love the simplicity of your recipe and the easy spice blend. These would be great with a green salad and some french bread.
Thanks Lisa! So right about the moist factor. Baked chicken legs really are one of my fav comfort foods. 🙂
Drumsticks sure are a huge hit at my house, and these sound delicious! I love the fact that you can prep these the night before then cook for a quick weeknight dinner after a long day at the office. This recipe is definitely a keeper!
Thanks Tina! Yep, make ahead or make at the last minute...they're a hit! 🙂
I love how easy these baked chicken drumsticks are! Just perfect for a busy weeknight. And they are so versatile! I would love to try marinating mine in a garlic, soy sauce, and ginger mixture over night. Yum!
Sounds delish! Hope you love it! 🙂
Oh my gosh I was the same way as a kid! My brother and I used to fight over them. This recipe is so perfectly simple but delicious. My toddler love the legs, too!
Thanks Tracy...yeah, super kid-friendly! 🙂
You're so right about approximating the time and needing to check in with the meat thermometer. So often chicken legs can be bigger or smaller and the cooking time has to be adjusted. Love how simple, yet tasty these were to make. I could have these on repeat a couple times a week.
Thanks Debra! Yep, I'm religious about that meat thermometer 🙂 Glad you love these!
There is just something so rustic and delicious with simple baked chicken. Drums are the best part. This is a great meal for the family. Perfect for Sunday Supper. Nice and juicy. Totally delicious without all the fuss.
Thanks Gloria! Baked chicken legs are, hands down, one of my favorite, no-fuss meals 🙂
Great recipe and perfect seasonings. 165 deg. F will make it safe to eat, but I’ve found that cooking drumsticks to 180-190 deg F will make them fall-off-the-bone tender. (Something about the toughness of drumstick meat.)
Well thanks...haven't tried that, and now I must!
I love this idea… chicken legs and thighs are ALWAYS on sale and I’m always looking for recipes that help with the weekly budget! We’re entertaining for a football party this weekend so I’m going to make these… winning… both reasonably priced and full, of yummy flavors! 🍗 🍗 🍗
I'm so glad to hear your enthusiasm...we think alike 😉 Thanks for taking the time to comment. I appreciate it!
My family loved these!! It's such an easy recipe but delicious. I'll definitely be making this again. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Awesome! This makes my day and I'm so glad you found the recipe 🙂 Thanks for taking the time to let me know!
I am cooking for about fifty people and need to cook it the day before will this be a good recipe to use and just heat up the day of
Hi Sybil, this is a great recipe for entertaining, but let me say this. You could bake them a day in advance, but the skin likely won't be crispy. Also, reheating fully cooked chicken can dry it out. Might I recommend that you bake them halfway the first day, and the other half the next day. Also, when they've finished baking, you can set them under the broiler briefly to make the skin crispier, if you like. Does this answer your question?
I made this recipe today because someone gave me ten pounds of drumsticks and since there are just 2 of us I had to have a recipe to use them. I made them in disposable deep dish 9x13 pans. When they were done, I covered them with foil and put one pan in the freezer for later. My son loved them.
Chekita, I'm so glad to hear this and happy you found the recipe. Thanks for the feedback too...it's great to hear how it worked out for you! 🙂
Traci,
We loved your recipe. I was looking for something simple since I didn't have much time. I took the easy way out & mixed the oil & rest & brushed it on the chicken, turning after 25 minutes. We like it crispy so broiled for a few minutes & it was so easy & delicious! Thanks!
Yay Andrea...so glad you found this recipe and enjoyed it. Gotta love those broilers too! Thanks so much for stopping back by with your feedback! 🙂
Making a large batch 30 or so. How much seasoning should I use multiply by 5?
Thank you for your help
Mary
Hi Mary, I would use about 1/4 cup oil (total) and multiply the seasonings by 2x or 3x (but not 5x). Also, I'd probably skip the plastic bag method and simply combine the oil and seasonings in a mixing bowl. Then use your hands (I prefer this with gloves) to rub or lightly coat each chicken leg with the seasoned oil. You should be able to fit all of the chicken legs onto two standard sized baking sheets and bake all at once. That's pretty much it. Hope this helps and let me know if you have further questions. Enjoy!!!
These are yummy, but they take a full hour to cook, and are definitely not done in 40 minutes. I think it depends how big your legs are , mine were about 600 grams a piece.
Hi Kimberley, that sounds on point if you're using 600 gram (1.3 lb) legs. I based my 30-40 minute cooking time on average sized chicken legs weighing 1/2 lb (226 grams). I'm adding this to the recipe now. I'm glad you found the right timing for yours and I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the comment! 🙂
Have you ever put the oil and seasonings on it and then freezed it for a quick no prep meal that can directly into the oven?
Hi Tiffany, I haven't done that with this particular recipe but I've done it with other chicken recipes. Works great! Let me know if you end up trying it 🙂
Found your Recipe on internet, thought I would coat it, now I am looking forward to tasting it. They look YUM.
Thanks William, hope you love them like we do!
So delicious, we make this 2-3 times a month!
Woohoo! So glad to hear it! Thanks for stopping by and letting me know 🙂
thanks for the baked chicken recipe! we usually broil our chicken but today we found our broiler not working. so we quickly looked for a baked chicken recipe. yours popped up first and we actually had all the ingredients!! it was awesome. thank you!!
Woohoo Lisa!! Yay that you found me and bigger YAY that you love the recipe! It's definitely one of my favs...so easy and devourable 🙂 Thanks so much for the feedback!
This is an exact recipe that what I was looking for. Thanks for sharing the amazing recipe with us! that is very simple and easy to cook and I am always searching for new recipes like this.
Awesome Kay! Glad you can enjoy it!
This was simple and just what I was looking for! I only had smoked paprika instead of regular and they turned out great!
I'm so glad to hear it, Monica! And any paprika would work for this one. Thanks for stopping by and commenting! 🙂
This is the first time I've commented on a recipe. These drumsticks are so good I had to let you know. My husband puts barbecue sauce on everything. I encouraged him to try these without. We both love them as is. Delicious, nutritious and inexpensive. Can't beat it!
Jaci...this makes my week! I love it that this is your first recipe comment...yay! We are just as crazy for these drumsticks as you are. That's exactly why I put them on the blog, because they're soooo good, and easy, and affordable, and all the things. Thanks again for the feedback 🙂
Absolutely love how simple and easy it is to tailor this recipe to your families personal tastes, even for someone as inexperienced as myself. Threw some lemon pepper seasoning in and it’s absolutely divine.
Thanks William! Tailoring is exactly what I made room for with this recipe. And lemon pepper sounds divvvvine 🙂
AbsoluteI made this recipe tonight for my husband and I. It was ABSOLUTELY delicious. The chicken was so juicy. I could’ve eaten all 6 legs. I was able to display some self control BUT I already can’t wait for lunch tomorrow. Thank you for such a simple, delicious recipe. I’ll definitely be making it again, and again.
Tiffany...yay! So glad you found this and enjoyed it as much as we do. It really is shockingly juicy, isn't it?! Thanks SO much for your comment. Makes my day! 🙂
My partner and I love this recipe. We add just a little bit of spice to it and it's awesome
Well this pretty much makes my day! Adding spice sounds great...I purposely left it on the plain side so people could do that. Thanks so much for dropping by and letting me know...always love to hear when a recipe works out nicely 🙂
Hi! This recipe sounds amazing and easy! My love for all types of chicken dates back too! I was just wondering if you pull the flaps of skin off the drumsticks will it effect the cooking of them or make them more crispy?
Hi Kayla, thanks so much! Yep, I leave the skin on b/c, if removed, the meat will get dry, not crispy. If you want to remove the skin, just be sure to cover the meat with foil to avoid drying the surface. Hope that helps! 🙂
Oh, how I love chicken legs. Your recipe really impresses! I like that it can be cook quickly and easily. This is the perfect recipe for me. I definitely want to try this recipe, and I'm sure it's very tasty. Thank you for sharing this great recipe!
Thanks so much Veena! Hope you get to try it out 🙂
I love the simplicity of this recipe. I like my chicken extra crispy so I will be putting in the broiler as you suggested.
Awesome Vicky, yep, once those chicken pieces are fully cooked, you can flip on the broiler and crisp them up. Be careful to not burn though 🙂
I'm a sucker for a quick crisp under the broiler, but like you said, you have to watch them like a hawk! Haha. I always try to remember to mention that in any broiling recipes I include on my blog. I had a bad experience back in the day when I'd *just* started my food blog as a hobby. I burned a nice piece of salmon. I almost quit blogging then and there; I figured I had no right. Hahaha. You live and learn! Great recipe, girl.
Omgosh Dana, I love your story as much as I love chicken legs! That's hilarious...and I totally understand your disappointment. Thankfully, you pressed on...because the recipe world NEEDS your amazing things!! 🙂
I just love the way this is done. Sounds so delicious !
Thanks so much Kushi! 🙂
Okay my kids would gobble this up in seconds. I am so putting this on the weekly rotation. I make chicken legs a lot but it's nice to have new ways to spice it up. Love all your step by step photos.
Thanks so much Karen....glad you like the step by step! Hope this does one make it into your rotation 🙂
Hey Traci, such a mouthwatering recipe can't wait to try spicy and yummy chicken drumsticks.I'm a big fan of chicken drumsticks and leg piece and you just shared the perfect article for my next recipe.Thanks for sharing such a delicious article.

Traci I’m new at cooking will it make the sound of cooking like as if it is on the stove while in oven
Hi Valerie, I'm not sure I understand the question.
I love how simple these are! Simple rules in my kitchen!
Thanks Lane...yep, meeee too!
I love chicken legs so much! I love the thighs too and I agree that they were gone way faster than I liked. Though my mom knew I liked them and would make sure I got at least one piece. I can't wait to try your recipe as it looks so delicious and easy!!
Haha yep, the parents always saved me a leg too, but it was never enough LOL
I love chicken drumsticks - so delicious and I love how easy this recipe is!

I love to cook easy, simple recipes. These drumsticks look so juicy and yummy. I could certainly finish 5 drumsticks in one sitting. Yummers!!
Haha thanks! I'm right there with ya on gobbling them down 🙂
These chicken legs are simple and easy. Chicken legs are also very economical so this is another way to save money on groceries and have a great meal.
Couldn't have said it better myself...thanks Sharon! 🙂
There's nothing better than easy chicken drumsticks recipe. I make them once a week :0
Thanks so much Edyta...they're so easy to make 1x week, aren't they 🙂
I used the original recipe and baked them as directed and I added some Kansas City style barbecue sauce while the legs were cooking. Let me say they turned out delicious!!! I recommend this addition. 😎😎
I love it, Martha! I kept them super simple just for that reason. I love the idea of BBQ sauce...it's making my mouth water right now! Thanks so much for taking the time to comment. Much appreciated! 🙂
Quick and easy recipes are definitely the go-to recipes in my kitchen.
Yes! Couldn't agree more Jacqueline 🙂 Thanks so much!
I am all about simple these days. Love this. Serve with a salad and boom! Done:)

Chicken drumsticks are on offer this week! Perfect timing! I think I am gonna give this a try. Thanks for the great recipe!
Thanks so much Kiki...love it when these things go on a big sale too! Hope you love them!
I love simple meals that are inexpensive! My husband will love these!
Yay thanks Jaime! Glad to hear it and I hope he does 🙂
Love to have these any night of the week! They were cooked perfectly and delicious.

As a single mom of 4,and 2 being teenage boys,THIS was the best recipe i could have found being that it's not only super easy,super quick,super delish..but also SUPER cheap!!! Thank you as this has became a family fav!
Thanks SO much Cortni! Love hearing everything you love about this and I couldn't agree more 🙂 So glad you found it...plenty more where that came from 🙂
Perfect. My husband likes simple, delicious recipes, and this was just what I was looking for.
Yay thanks for letting me know! This one doesn't get any more simple...or delicious 🙂 Hope you love it like we do!
I tried this and mine would not brown.
Hi Yohon, hmmm, not sure why they wouldn't brown for you. I hope it was at least delicious! If you like crispier and browner skin, you might try switching over to the broiler at the end of your cooking cycle and carefully brown them more to your liking. Let me know if you do it! Cheers!
Sometimes the best recipes are the simplest ones. I used Italian herbs instead of garlic powder and added potato wedges to the pan for a complete meal. Loved it!
We looooove simple recipes and this one is super versatile for changing up seasonings. Love pan meals too! Thanks for stopping by 🙂
