8. 1 tbsp red chili powder
9. 1/4 tsp turmeric powder
10. 1/2 tsp garam masala
11. 1 tbsp oil

Preparation Steps

1. Remove all the loose skin from the drumsticks and make a few slits on the flesh.
Grind all the ingredients except for the chicken and the oil to form a smooth paste.
Apply the paste liberally all over the chicken and marinate for minimum 1 hour, or overnight in the fridge.
Preheat the oven to 400F.
Line an ovenproof pan with aluminum foil, coated with oil
2. Arrange the wings in the pan, making sure the wings are not touching each other
3. Reserve the remaining marinade.
Cook for about 6 minutes, remove from the oven, turn the wings around and pour the reserved marinade over.
Reduce the oven temperature to 350F and return the pan to the oven
4. Cook for 35-40 minutes, rotating the pieces once half way through till the chicken pieces are cooked.
Serve hot with sliced onions and pieces of lemon to squeeze over.
If you are serving these to guests, you might want to wrap the bony ends of the drumsticks in foil, to avoid the messy fingers.
