Ingredients

5 chicken drumsticks (with skin on) (625 g)
Salt
1 Tablespoon (15 ml) of olive oil
1/2 medium onion (55 g), peeled and chopped
2 cloves (6 g) of garlic, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup (60 ml) of red wine (or water)
20 black olives (60 g), pitted and sliced
1 can (400 g) of diced tomatoes
1/4 cup (60 ml) of water
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 355°F (180°C). Season the chicken with salt on all sides.
Add the olive oil to a pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken to pan and brown on all sides until the skins are golden and crispy. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
Add the onion and garlic to the same pan and saute until golden brown. Deglaze the pan with the red wine (or water) and continue to saute until all the wine cooks out.
