Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tbsp olive oil
8 chicken drumsticks , skin left on
2 onions , very finely chopped
6 tbsp red lentil
400g can chopped tomato
1 chicken stock cube , crumbled
crusty bread , to serve
zest 1 lemon
1 garlic clove , finely chopped
small handful parsley , finely chopped

Steps:

  • Heat half the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish, brown the drumsticks on all sides, then transfer to a plate.
  • Add the onions and remaining oil to the pan, and cook for 5 mins or so until soft. Add the lentils, tomatoes, 1 can of water and the stock cube. Return the drumsticks to the pan. Bring to the boil, then turn down the heat, put on a lid and simmer for 30 mins or until tender. Keep an eye on the stew and add a little water if it is drying out. Remove the lid and cook for another 10 mins, or until the sauce has thickened, then season.
  • Meanwhile, make the gremolata. Mix the lemon zest, garlic and parsley together. Sprinkle over the cooked stew and serve with a chunk of crusty bread.
