Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Pan Roasted Spanish-Lemon Chicken Drumsticks with Potatoes.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a sizzling 450°F (230°C).
Step 2
While the oven warms up, grab a large bowl and toss in your chicken drumsticks.
Step 3
Sprinkle in some paprika, drizzle 1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil, and add 3/4 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of chopped garlic.
Step 4
Mix everything together until the chicken is beautifully coated in those vibrant flavors.
Step 5
Next, take another bowl and add your red potatoes.
Step 6
Pour in the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil, along with 1 tablespoon of chopped garlic, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
Step 7
Don’t forget to add those zesty lemon slices! Give it all a good toss to ensure the potatoes are well-seasoned and ready to shine.

Arrange the seasoned chicken drumsticks in a roasting pan, making sure to surround them with the flavorful potatoes and lemon slices.

Slide the pan into your preheated oven and let it bake for 25 minutes.

Continue baking for another 20 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center, and the potatoes are tender.
