Yummy! I try to eat healthy, so I always prefer baked meals to fried food. This chicken recipe is so delicious, you won't try another :) You can also use smaller chicken wings, and prepare them when you have friends over. Ingredients (for 2 people) 2 pounds of chicken drumsticks  1 2/3 tsp salt 1 tsp black pepper 1/2 tsp turmeric (if you prefer you can use fresh turmeric) 1/2 tsp sugar 1- 2" fresh ginger, finely grated 2 cloves garlic, finely grated Preparation: 1. Combine in a bowl the salt, pepper, turmeric and sugar and rub the chicken with the spice mix. 3. Sprinkle ginger and garlic evenly over the chicken. Cover and chill the chicken for minimum of 1 hour (I chill it overnight) 4. Place the chicken on a greased foil-lined rimmed baking sheet, sprinkle oil on top of the chicken. 5. Bake at 425F for about 25 min (until golden brown)  6. Using tongs, turn the chicken over and continue to cook for additional 20-25 min. (until skin is crisp) 7. Enjoy!
