Ingredients

2 lbs. chicken drumsticks (about 6) ($4.98)

1 Tbsp cooking oil ($0.08)

1/4 tsp garlic powder ($0.02)

1/4 tsp salt ($0.02)

1/8 tsp freshly cracked pepper ($0.01)

1 Tbsp butter

2 tsp ranch seasoning* ($0.12)

Instructions

1 Preheat the oven to 425ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2 Place the chicken drumsticks in a large bowl and drizzle the cooking oil over top. Add the garlic powder, salt, and pepper, then toss until the chicken is evenly coated in oil and seasoning.

3 Place the chicken drumsticks on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 175ºF and the drumsticks are browned. Flip the drumsticks once, halfway through baking.

4 After baking, transfer the drumsticks to a clean bowl. Melt the butter and drizzle it over the drumsticks. Gently toss the drumsticks to coat. Sprinkle the ranch seasoning over top then toss to coat again. Serve hot!
