Ingredients
- Boneless, skinless chicken drumsticks
- 2 carrots sliced into rounds
- 1 Courgette sliced into half-moons
- 1 red capsicum diced
- 1 cup Broccoli Florets
- 1 sliced Red Onion
- 1 Lemon juiced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Casserole or Baking Pan
- Chef’s Knife
- Baking Sheet
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 200°C.
- In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
- Add the chicken drumsticks to the bowl, coating them evenly with the marinade. Let it sit for about 10 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.
- On a large baking sheet, arrange the sliced carrots, Onions, capsicum, courgette, and broccoli florets in a single layer.
- Place the marinated chicken drumsticks on top of the vegetables. Drizzle the lemon juice over everything for added flavor.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 75°C and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized. You want the chicken to be golden brown and the veggies to look vibrant.
- Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your one-pan meal!
