In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken drumsticks, onion powder, ginger paste, garlic paste, chili powder, salt, and pepper.

Mix well until the chicken is evenly coated with the spices.

Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.

Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat.

Once the oil is hot, carefully add the marinated chicken drumsticks to the pan, making sure not to overcrowd them.

You may need to fry in batches depending on the size of your pan.

Fry the chicken drumsticks for about 8-10 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.

The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).

Once the chicken is cooked, transfer it to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Serve the spiced crispy chicken drumsticks hot, either as is or with your favorite dipping sauce.
