This effortless and whole nourishing recipe will be one of your favorites too. A classic juicy and crisp skinned chicken served with fresh vegetables and aromatic herbs such as thyme and bay leaf can be made in short time. I like to use the chicken drumsticks on this recipe as the most of the time they are juicy and easy to cook. Besides, I figured out adding the white wine will enhance the flavor more.

INGREDIENTS:

1 pound organic chicken drumstick

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 cup water (chicken broth)

½ red onion, cut in quarters

1 red and green sweet peppers, seeded and sliced

1/3 lb. cherry tomato

1 lemon quartered

1 sprig fresh thyme, 1 bay leaf, 1 clove of garlic  and 2 hot chili pepper
