Author: Simply yum

Serves: 2

 

Ingredients

• 4 chicken drumsticks
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• 1 medium size onion, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon of rosemary, finely chopped
• 1 can of chopped tomatoes
• 1 teaspoon of sugar
• 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar
• 150g of mushrooms, chopped
• salt
• freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Heat the oven at 200°C/392°F. Massage the chicken drumsticks with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and place them in an oven proof dish. Get the dish in the oven and leave it there for 15 minutes.
2. In the meantime, heat up the remaining olive oil in a non-stick pan. Throw in the onion and the rosemary and saute them for 5 minutes until the onion gets soft. Add the tomatoes, the sugar and the vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Mix everything together and leave it on the fire for a couple of minutes.
3. Reduce the oven temperature to 180°C/356°F. Pour the tomato sauce on top of the chicken. Pour a glass of hot water in as well, until the chicken is covered. Place the dish back in the oven. After 20 minutes turn the drumsticks on the other side. After another 20 minutes turn the drumsticks again and add the mushrooms. Leave everything in the oven for another 10 minutes.
4. By now the chicken should be soft and tender. Serve with mash potatoes, pasta or bread toast.
