The days are getting chillier which means we can turn our ovens on again for some delicious roasted chicken. Slices of lemon and garden tomatoes bring a beautifully bright flavor to this dish. I placed it over top of some creamy polenta, which is optional but I highly recommend!
Ingredients
6-8 chicken drumsticks
2 lemons
3-4 medium sized tomatoes, chopped
2 teaspoons of oregano
1/4 cup olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
polenta
Directions
Place your chicken drumsticks in a large bowl, add juice from 1 lemon, oregano, salt, pepper and olive oil. Mix well so all of the chicken gets coated.
Take your other lemon and slice it thinly and chop your tomatoes into bite-sized pieces. Add it all to the bowl of chicken and mix again.
Pour the chicken mixture into a baking pan and bake at 425 for 40-45 minutes.
Cook your polenta according to package instructions.
Plate and serve immediately.
Buon appetito!
