Chicken Drumstick Tray Bake

Tray bakes are so easy to make. Just marinate the chicken and prep the veggies. Caramelized vegetables and tender lemon, garlic chicken with no fuss. 

Ingredients:

8 chicken drumsticks

salt and pepper to taste

1 tbsp dry oregano

2 tsps smoked paprika

1 tbsp lime juice

2 tbsps lemon juice

zest of 1/2 a lemon

2 tsps minced garlic

3 tbsps olive oil, divided

4 cups broccoli florets

10 small new potatoes, halved

1 onion, cut in wedges

1 bell pepper, cut in squares 

fresh parsley to garnish 

Line a baking sheet with parchment for easy cleanup. In a bowl, mix the salt, pepper, dry oregano, smoked paprika, lime juice, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic and 1 tbsp olive oil together. Add the drumsticks and marinate for at least 4 hours. In another bowl mix the remaining 2 tbsps olive oil with the broccoli florets, potato halves, onion wedges and bell pepper squares. Salt and pepper to taste if you like. Set aside. Lay chicken out on the parchment lined baking sheet and bake in a 350°F oven for 25 minutes. Then add the vegetables, spread out evenly and return to the oven for about 50 minutes. When potatoes are tender dinner is ready. Broil 4-5 minutes to a nice golden brown. Garnish with fresh parsley.
