In a measuring cup or small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, paprika, salt, turmeric, pepper, cumin, coriander, and cayenne.
Add marinade to drumsticks (I use a zip-top bag but a bowl or baking dish would work as well). Let marinade for at least 30 minutes or up to 6 hours.
When ready to grill, heat grill to medium heat. Remove drumsticks from marinade, letting excess drip off. Place drumsticks on grill and cover grill. Grill for 18-20 minutes, turning once, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Serve immediately.
