Ingredients
  

  • 10 chicken drumsticks
  • 4 large potatoes , washed and cut into wedges
  • 8-10 garlic cloves
  • 1 cup packed cilantro , washed and cleaned
  • 3 spring onions , washed and trimmed from top
  • 1 jalapeno
  • 1 large lemon , juiced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons ground coriander (coriander powder)
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt or to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with silicone baking sheet or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
  2. In a food blender or food processor, combine the olive oil, garlic cloves, jalapeno, cilantro, green onion, lemon juice, coriander powder, salt, and turmeric powder. Bend to create a smooth marinade.
  3. Layer the chicken drumsticks and potato wedges on the baking sheet, then brush with the marinade, for an even coating.
  4. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, flipping the drumsticks and potatoes halfway through cooking.
  5. Once done, remove the sheet pan from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve hot with Indian kachumber salad or yogurt raita.
