This is one of my favorite chicken recipes. The garlic/lemon/cilantro flavors work really well in this Garlic Lemon Chicken Potatoes recipe, adding a tangy flavor and the potatoes make this dish more filling.

Instructions
- Skin/wash the chicken drumsticks and place in a sealable bowl. Poke holes on each side of the chicken with a knife to ensure the marinade is absorbed.

- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- In a baking dish, arrange the drumsticks along with the marinade mixture and cook for 30 minutes, turning once, or until no longer pink and liquids run clear when chicken is poked.
- In the meantime, saute the potato ingredients until tender.
- Remove the baking dish and add the potatoes. Mix the sauce ingredients and pour over the chicken/potato mixture. Cover with foil and cook for an additional 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil, turn the chicken and cook for an additional 15 minutes until the chicken is slightly browned. You can also broil for a few more minutes if you prefer the chicken to be browned a bit more.
- Serve hot with a fresh salad.
