Method

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F.
  2. Combine the ingredients for the seasoning, then rub in the chicken drumsticks on all sides.
  3. Heat olive oil and butter in a large oven-proof skillet over medium high heat. Add drumsticks and sear both sides until golden brown, about 8 minutes per side. Remove from skillet.
  4. In the same skillet, add garlic, cook over low heat until soft, 2 minutes. Add ground black pepper and green peppercorns, sauté for 1 minute. Stir in thyme and oregano. Pour chicken stock and bring to a boil. Stir in the cheese, add milk and roasted bell peppers. Give it a taste and season with salt, if needed.
  5. Return chicken to the skillet. Sprinkle with fresh thyme. Place the skillet in the oven and roast until completely cooked through, about 30 minutes. Enjoy!
  6. Serve with orzo, baked/mashed potatoes or bread, and broccoli or a simple side salad.
