Lemon Chicken Drumsticks

Serving size 6, Prep time 2 to 4 hours, Cook time 1h 15m

12 Chicken drumsticks (about 3 lbs)
3 Large lemons
2 Tbs thyme
2 Tbs olive oil
1/4 tps sea salt
1/4 tps black pepper
2 Tps fresh parsley, for garnish
Orzo for serving

Rinse chicken and pat dry

Combine the zest and juice of two lemons, thyme, olive oil, salt and pepper in a large bowl.

Add drumsticks and toss to coat. 

Now cut one of the lemons you zested into slices and place on top of chicken. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours or over night.

Arrange the drumstick in a shallow baking dish. Don't crowd the drumsticks. Pour any marinade over the chicken, and place lemon slices between chicken.

Bake at 375 for 1 1/4 and occasionally bast the chicken until cooked through and golden brown. Once cooked used juice of 3rd lemon to drizzle over chicken.

Cook Orzo then spoon orzo or rice onto platter. Arrange drumsticks like so and spoon juices on orzo. Place a small amount of parsley on chicken.

Bon appetit,
