Squeeze out as much air as possible from the freezer bag before closing it. Refrigerate the marinated chicken for 24 hours in a freezer bag.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F after the chicken has been marinated for 24 hours. Make use of a I used a 2.5 quart oval casserole dish as a medium size casserole dish ( 13 inches x 9 inches x 4 inches deep). Place the chicken in the casserole dish and pour the marinade all over it and surrounding it. Roast for 30-45 minutes (depending on your oven) until the chicken juices run clear and the drumsticks are browned and charred in places. If more color is desired, broil for another 5-10 minutes. Serve right away with the sauce from the pan.
