Method

Dry the chickpeas well so they crisp.

01
Thaw
Thaw the chicken in the fridge overnight, about 12 hours, still in its pack. Never thaw on the counter. Pat dry before cooking.
02
Marinate
Toss the drumsticks with the marinade. Rest for 20 minutes while the oven heats to 210 °C.
03
Prep the tray
Toss the chickpeas with the paprika, cumin and a little oil. Spread on a tray with the onion and lemon slices.
04
Roast
Add the drumsticks to the tray. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, turning once, until the skin is crisp. Cook until no pink remains and the juices run clear, or 74 °C at the thickest part if you use a thermometer.
05
Rest
Rest everything on the tray for 5 minutes.
06
Finish
Scatter the feta and parsley. Squeeze over the roasted lemon.
