Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 ° C top / bottom heat (convection 175 ° C).
  2. Rub the chicken legs with salt. Place on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for about 40 minutes.
  3. Halve the shallots and tomatoes, dice the garlic, pluck the rosemary needles and basil leaves and chop.
  4. Heat the oil in a casserole and fry the shallots in it. Add the garlic, herbs and tomatoes and sauté briefly. Deglaze with white wine and tomato juice. Simmer over medium heat for about 8 minutes. Add the beans about 2 minutes before the end of the cooking time. Season to taste with salt, pepper, sugar and paprika.
  5. Arrange the chicken drumsticks and vegetables on a platter.
  6. The legs taste particularly spicy when coated with a little pesto (from the glass), then wrapped with a thin slice of Parma ham each, possibly stuck a little and put in the oven.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
