I guess they aren’t too spicy, but it’s just all a matter of opinion. This is a super easy recipe that you can use wings with too; grocery stores sell the wings packaged with the tips already removed. What ever you like really.

2 teaspoons of ground cumin

1 teaspoon of powdered garlic

1 teaspoon of cayenne powder

1 teaspoon of paprika

1 teaspoon of marjoram, crushed

1 teaspoon of salt

2 lbs of chicken drummettes

2 tablespoons of olive oil

Preheat oven to 425 degrees

Mix cumin, garlic, cayenne, paprika, marjoram and salt in a small bowl. Rinse the chicken pieces and pat dry. Rub the spice mixture all over the chicken. Pour the olive oil onto a large baking sheet and spread it around. Roll the chicken pieces in the oil until lightly coated on all sides, then arrange them in a single layer without touching.

Bake for about 20 minutes. Flip the pieces over and bake for about 10 to 15 more minutes. They should be slightly crisp and golden on the outside.

Hot or cold they are delicious!

Hi! My name is Carrie. I started this blog 11 years ago when I was newly married. We had no kids, only two little furbabies. I loved to cook back then. It was so rewarding to see how I could combine ingredients that I had never tried and make this really wonderful meal. Fast forward 11 years and now I have two boys, 6 and 8 years old. They are literally the toughest critics I have ever fed. Which, let's face it, makes cooking less fun. My goal for this site is to involve my entire family in our meals and post our progress in the kitchen... Lord willing and the creek don't rise.
