Blackened Chicken Drumsticks

  • 3 tablespoons smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon sea salt
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon coriander seeds, ground
  • 1/2 tablespoon black peppercorns, ground
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 juice of 1 lime
  • 12 chicken drumsticks
Combine all the spices with the garlic and oil in a bowl.
Evenly rub the chicken pieces with the spice mixture. Place in a large ziploc freezer  bag or a bowl covered in plastic wrap. Keep in the refrigerator for 1 hour or up to overnight for a more intense flavor.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees .
In a cast-iron skillet heat over high heat, add enough vegetable oil to coat the whole bottom of the pan. The pan will be ready when it starts to gently smoke. Place the chicken drumsticks in the skillet and blacken all sides, about 7 minutes.  Remove from the heat and place the skillet (or oven proof dish) in the oven for 25 minutes.
Enjoy!
