Ingredients
2 large onions (3 medium)
3 carrots
800g potatoes
1Kg (8-10) chicken drumsticks
1 can of chickpeas
1 tbsp oil
250g Annabel’s Go To Chermoula Sauce
1 tsp salt and several grinds of pepper
Optional
Bag of spinach leaves
Method
Preheat oven to 180˚C fan bake or 200˚C regular bake.
Peel and halve onions and cut each half into wedges about 2cm thick. Peel carrots, and cut into smallish finger-sized batons. Peel potatoes and cut into 2-3 cm chunks. Rinse and drain chickpeas into a sieve.
Line the largest shallow roasting dish you have with baking paper for easy clean up (or use two smaller trays). Pile on the chopped vegetables, drained chickpeas and chicken drumsticks.
Pour over ½ cup Annabel’s Go to Chermoula sauce and 1 tbsp oil. Use your hands to mix evenly. Spread out in the tray nestling the chicken drumsticks into the vegetables so they sit directly on the tray. Season with salt and pepper.
Roast until tender and golden, 50-55 minutes, turning vegetables with a spatula after 30 minutes to ensure even cooking.
When vegetables are tender and lightly golden, and chicken is cooked, remove from oven and transfer to a serving platter.
To Serve
Thin the rest of the Go To Chermoula Sauce to the consistency of runny cream with a little bit of water. Drizzle this over the vegetables and chicken. Season with a little salt and some grinds of pepper.
Optional
If using optional spinach, arrange spinach on the base of the serving platter and pile the hot tray bake over the top. The spinach will wilt and soften slightly.
