- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 2 pounds bone-in, skinless drumsticks
1 medium red onion, sliced
1 cup long grain rice
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
2 lemons, thinly sliced, seeds removed
1/2 cup green olives, sliced
1 (14.5-ounce) can chicken broth
1 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons lemon juice

and sprinkle with olives. Gently pour chicken broth and white
wine over casserole and sprinkle with lemon juice.
- Reduce heat to very low; cover the skillet
tightly and let simmer for 35 to 45 minutes, until the rice and
lemon slices are tender and the chicken is cooked through (meat
