Step 1: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature will help achieve that perfectly crispy skin.
Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the chimichurri seasoning, canola oil, lemon juice, and white vinegar. Mix well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Step 3: Add the chicken drumsticks to the bowl with the chimichurri marinade. Use your hands or tongs to ensure that all the drumsticks are evenly coated. For the best flavor, let them marinate for at least 30 minutes, or ideally, a few hours in the refrigerator.
Step 4: Line your baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Arrange the marinated drumsticks on the sheet, making sure they are spaced apart to allow for even cooking.
Step 5: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. You can flip the drumsticks halfway through cooking for even crispiness.
Step 6: To ensure the chicken is fully cooked, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should read 165°F (75°C) at the thickest part of the drumstick.
Step 7: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute. Serve your Baked Chimichurri Chicken Drumsticks with your favorite sides, such as a fresh salad or roasted vegetables.
