Roast Rosemary Chicken & Vegetables

I'm going to start this entry off by saying: On Thursday, Chris and I both had pretty crappy days at work. After getting home from work, neither of us really wanted to do anything other than drink wine and lay around. After this meal though, we both were in GREAT moods :) We both loved this meal and will definitely make it again and again.. it was super easy and soooo good. Plus, it was the perfect amount of food for 1 dinner + 1 lunch for me. Here's how we did it..



Ingredients
5 chicken drumsticks
2 large red potatoes, cut in bite-sized wedges
1 red pepper and 1 green pepper, again cut in bite sized wedges
1 onion, thick slices
3+ tbsp rosemary
Garlic, salt, and pepper to taste
Olive oil
Balsamic vinegar
Kalamata olives (Well, the recipe called for them - but I don't think we'll add them next time. The flavor was already so good that the dish didn't really need the olives.)




Directions
1. Preheat oven to 500 degrees and cover a cookie sheet with foil.
2. Put chicken, potatoes, peppers, and onions in a big bowl. Drizzle with oil and season with rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper. Toss to coat everything evenly.
3. Put the chicken & veggies on the cookie sheet and roast for 30 minutes. Turn veggies and chicken over after about 15 minutes.
4. Arrange on plate, drizzle lightly with balsamic vinegar and add the olives if you want :)
