Coconut Lime Drumsticks

When I started seriously kicking processed food to the curb (including those very convenient seasoning and sauce packets) I felt like my meals took a sharp left turn towards bland. Looking back, the turning point was when I became braver about experimenting with citrus zest and juice. For me, at least, adding a taste of acid to my dishes wasn't intuitive. Over time though I learned that if I felt like something was missing in a dish- it was usually acid. Citrus zest and juice offer that acidic balance with an extra burst of brightness.

{ingredients}
approximately 2 lbs of drumsticks
2 tbsp extra virgin coconut oil
Salt and Pepper, taste
1.5 tbsp Rotisserie seasoning
1/2 tsp Garlic powder
Zest and Juice of 1 lime

{method}
Preheat oven to 300 degrees

1. Lay drumsticks in a lightly oiled baking dish (I literally dabbed a clean cloth and then wiped my dish).
2. Smear drumsticks with coconut oil. This is easier if you set it on top of your
    oven while it preheats. I use a pastry brush to rub it in but you could probably use your hands just as easily. 
3. Season with salt, pepper, Rotisserie seasoning, garlic powder and lime zest. Squeeze lime over drumsticks, distributing the juice as evenly as you can. 
4. Bake at 300 degrees for about 1 hour or until cooked through. 

I make my own rotisserie seasonings of cumin, chili pepper, paprika, and onion powder. I *love* using coconut oil anytime I'm cooking chicken with the skin on- it creates the most deliciously crispy skin!
