4 chicken drumsticks
2 lemons
garlic (2x cloves), crushed
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp mixed herbs
Put as many chicken drumsticks (thighs or wings) in an ovenproof dish as you need
Squeeze a couple of lemons over them and squash several cloves of garlic (one per person is a good guide but depends on your taste)
Season with pepper and mixed herbs
Marinate in the fridge for a couple of hours
When you're ready, pop them in a 180'C/Gas mark 4 oven and cook for around 40 mins... or until the chicken is cooked through
Serve with potato wedges, rice or baked beans and your favourite vegetables
You will need
You will need an ovenproof dish. We like this grey, stoneware one that's available here at Amazon for £12.99. See more details here.
Tips
Chicken thighs and wings work equally well - pick whichever suits you best

Variations
Varying the marinade; introduce different flavours... grate some lemon zest in before squeezing the lemons for extra flavour, maybe add honey to give them a sweet glaze or be adventurous and try juice of an orange and a bit of ground ginger - these can also be cooked on the barbecue
