Although this Keto Baked Jamaican Jerk Chicken recipe has a lot more ingredients than most of my recipes, I promise you it is well worth investing the time to make this.  This seasoning blend is also delicious on any other type of chicken, steak or fish.  So pull out some spices and make the most amazing oven baked chicken!  Moist and tender on the inside and deliciously crispy on the outside.

Scale
  • 8 chicken drumsticks (or other type of chicken)
  • 1 tbsp onion powder

  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp tomato powder (optional)
  • 2 tsp salt

  3. Using a paper towel, blot the chicken to remove any excess moisture.

  5. Place chicken on baking rack and bake for about 25- 30 minutes for drumsticks and 50 minutes for larger chicken quarters
  6. Raise the temperature of the oven to 450 degrees F. and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken is 165 degrees F.  and the skin begins to crisp
