Preparation
Total time: 2 hr 35 min
Hands-on prep: 20 min
Cooking: 1 hr 15 min
1. Prepare the chicken
In a bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, Herbes de Provence, salt, and cracked pepper. Mix until evenly blended. Add the drumsticks and toss so each piece is well coated. Cover and refrigerate to marinate for at least 1 hour.
2. Prepare the potatoes
Preheat the oven to 400°F (conventional setting). In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, Herbes de Provence, salt, pepper, and the 100 ml of water. Peel the potatoes and cut them lengthwise into quarters. Add the potato pieces to the bowl and stir well so they’re evenly coated.
3. Assemble the baking dish
Transfer the marinated drumsticks and the coated potato quarters into a large ovenproof baking dish and spread everything out in a single layer so they cook evenly.
4. Bake
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil, then return the dish to the oven and bake uncovered for another 30 minutes to brown and crisp the drumsticks and potatoes.
To serve
Serve immediately, sprinkled with chopped parsley.
