Ingredients: 

8 chicken drumsticks- approximately 600g (1lb 8oz)
3 lemons
1tsp French mustard
3 Tbsp honey
1 tsp of smoked paprika
2 small sprigs of rosemary cut into 8 pieces
50g (2oz) butter
600g (1lb 8oz ) (2.5cm/ 1 inch) diced potatoes, skin on
1 large clove of garlic chopped and crushed to a paste (optional)
2 little gem lettuce
2 vine ripe tomatoes


1.) Preheat the oven to 200 C/400F gas mark 6 or 190 C in a fan assisted oven. 2.) Squeeze the juice of 2 lemons and strain out any pips, then mix in the honey, paprika, mustard, butter, rosemary and garlic. 3.) Put the diced potatoes and the chicken drumsticks into a non-stick roasting pan. 4.) Warm your honey mixture in a microwave for 20 seconds and then pour over the drumsticks and potatoes. 5.) Stir the drumsticks and potatoes well to make sure the honey mix coats the meat and potatoes evenly.  6.)   Cook the chicken on the middle shelf of your oven for 45-50 minutes, gently turning over the chicken and potatoes every 10 minutes.  7.)   Whilst the chicken is cooking make the salad by cutting each little gem into 8 wedges, wash and drain well paper towels.  8.)   Put the drained lettuce into a large salad bowl, chop and add the tomatoes.  9.)   When your chicken and potatoes are cooked remove from the oven, cut the remaining lemon in half, squeeze the juice over the chicken and serve.
More Cooking Tips: As an alternative you can take the remaining lemon and slice into 8 wedges and cook it together with the chicken and potatoes.

If you don’t own a microwave then warm the mixture in the roasting tray for 1 minute before adding the chicken and potatoes. 

  For those who have never tried garlic before…. I do urge you to try. Recent medical studies have shown garlic actually widens and strengthens your arteries, thus improving your circulation and lowering your blood pressure.    

Garlic is also credited with dissolving the proteins that affect the formation of plaque.  It is no accident that our continental cousins who make olive oil and garlic part of their diet have less heart and circulation problems. - See more at: http://wannabetvchef.blogspot.ca/#sthash.3tnxqSiP.dpuf
