Chicken with Lemon and Rosemary

I found this recipe while searching online for a chicken drumstick recipe. It looked and sounded so delicious, that I knew I had to make it. This was SO good! I think it would have been a smidge better had I of used fresh rosemary as opposed to dry, but I didn't have any fresh rosemary on hand and I didn't want to make a trip to the store to pick up just one ingredient. Let’s face it any time you make a run to the store to get JUST ONE ingredient, you never leave with JUST ONE ingredient and before you know it $20.00 later...
