For extra crispy skin, you can place the drumsticks under the broiler for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, watching carefully to prevent burning. Add a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the Parmesan mixture for an extra layer of flavor. Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to brighten the dish. Consider serving with roasted asparagus or a simple green salad for a complete meal.
