Ingredients
4 to 6 chicken drumsticks, skin on
2 to 3 large red bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt to taste
Black pepper to taste
Directions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Pat the chicken drumsticks dry with paper towels and season generously on all sides with salt and black pepper.
In a large bowl, combine the minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, and dried thyme.
Add the seasoned drumsticks and chopped red bell peppers to the bowl, and toss to coat evenly with the herb mixture.
Arrange the chicken and peppers in a single layer on a large baking sheet, spreading them out evenly.
Roast in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 45 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) when measured at the thickest part of the thigh without touching bone. The drumsticks should be deeply golden and the skin crispy.
Divide the chicken and peppers between two plates and serve warm.
