Ingredients

6-12 chicken legs
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp thyme
1/4 tsp basil
1/4 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp garlic powder
Sheet Pan Drumsticks optional if you want to add vegetables to the sheet pan

1 c broccoli florets
1/2 lb baby potatoes
2 tomatoes sliced into bite size chunks
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp thyme
1/4 tsp basil

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 F. Pat chicken legs dry with paper towels, brush with olive oil and then roll around into a bowl with all of the mixed spices listed above until each leg is coated.
If only baking drumsticks - Line a baking sheet with foil and drizzle with remaining oil on top. Lay out the chicken legs. Bake for 40 minutes in the oven. Then spray a bit of olive oil on top, or brush with teriyaki or bbq sauce on top of each one and bake for another 5 minutes or until as browned as you'd like and inside reaches 165 F inside.
If adding vegetables to your sheet pan drumsticks - Rinse, dry and cut baby potatoes into halves or quarters, put in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and boil for 5 minutes.
Line a baking sheet with foil and drizzle with remaining oil. Lay out seasoned chicken legs and potatoes. Cover baking sheet with foil and bake for 40 minutes in the oven.
Put the broccoli florets in a saucepan, cover with water and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and boil 2 minutes, then drain and rinse the broccoli with cold water. Let the water drain again.
After 40 minutes, put the chopped onion, boiled broccoli and tomato sliced on a baking sheet. Sprinkle it with spices as desired. Bake for another 10-15 minutes covered to stay moist or uncovered to brown and bake.
