One-Tray Turmeric Chicken Drumsticks with Roasted Capsicum

This is the kind of dinner that makes life feel a bit easier. You chuck everything into one tray, let the oven do the heavy lifting, and end up with juicy chicken, soft roasted capsicum, and plenty of tasty pan juices to mop up with bread.

It’s also a great way to make the most of fresh ingredients. ALDI sources 97% of its fruit and vegetables from local Australian farms, which is a lovely bonus too.

This one is easy, hearty, and perfect for a busy night when you still want something that feels like a proper dinner.

Spread the chicken out over the veg so everything roasts nicely instead of steaming. If your drumsticks are large, give them the full cooking time.

Serve it with Lebanese bread to mop up the juices. The Greek yoghurt on the plate adds a nice cool contrast.
