Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat the 8 chicken drumsticks dry with paper towels.

  2. Step 2

    In a small bowl, mix 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp paprika, and 1 tsp red pepper flakes.

  3. Step 3

    Rub the spice mixture all over the drumsticks, coating evenly.

  4. Step 4

    Cut 3 tomatoes into wedges and 1 onion into thick slices. Place them in a large baking dish.

  5. Step 5

    Drizzle 3 tbsp olive oil over the vegetables and toss to coat. Arrange the drumsticks on top.

  6. Step 6

    Roast for 35-40 minutes, until the chicken is golden and cooked through (internal temp 165°F) and the vegetables are soft.

  7. Step 7

    Let rest 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon wedges if desired.
