  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 small red onions, sliced into wedges
  • 1 large red capsicum, thickly sliced

  • 1/3 cup Pick stewed diced tomatoes sauce
  • salt and pepper

Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 210°C. Find an ovenproof dish which will fit all your chicken drumsticks in a single layer.
  2. Rub each chicken drumstick in the minced garlic and oil. Place in the ovenproof dish. Roast for 20 minutes until skin is just starting to gain a touch of gold.

  4. Mix the passata with the sun-dried tomato stir-through paste. Pour it over the chicken and vegetables. Season with salt and pepper, bake for a further 15 minutes or until it’s reached boiling point and bubbling.
  5. Remove from the oven and add capers and fresh basil leaves.
