Ingredients
- 4 chicken drumsticks (skin on)
- 500 g raw carrots
- 500 g raw parsnips
- 1 red onion
- 6 cloves garlic
- 2 lemons
- 4-5 sprigs rosemary
- 500 ml chicken stock
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Peel and chop the root vegetables into medium-sized chunks. Add to a baking tray with half the oil, salt and pepper and place in an oven at 190°C (fan) for 50 minutes.
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper. With the rest of the oil, sear the chicken on all sides in a pan on high heat.
- Once the chicken is seared, remove from the pan. In the same pan, add the garlic and onions. Reduce the heat to low and cook for around 5 minutes until soft.
- Add the chicken back to the pan with the stock, rosemary and the juice from the lemon. Cook on a medium heat for another 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked.
- Blend the reduced liquid (with a small amount of cornflour if needed for thickening) and serve as a gravy on the chicken and root vegetables.
