Step 1

Arrange a rack in the center of your oven, and preheat to 425 °F/ 220 °C

Step 2

Take a large rimmed baking sheet pan and cover it with parchment paper, set aside. You can also coat it with olive oil instead.

Step 3

Thoroughly pat-dry the chicken drumsticks with paper towels. Get the chicken as dry as possible, as it will help with browning.

Step 4

Spread the chicken drumsticks evenly on the baking sheet and season on both sides with salt (about 1/2 teaspoon).

Step 5

Arrange the sweet potatoes, apples, and onions evenly in between the chicken drumsticks.

Step 6

Season the vegetables with the rest of the salt (1/2 teaspoon), and then everything royally with freshly ground black pepper, garlic powder, and sage.

Step 7

Tuck in fresh Rosemary leaves evenly across the sheet pan, and cover everything with olive oil. You might need two extra tablespoons, if desired, to cover all the edges.

Step 8

Place in the oven for 30 minutes. Remove from oven, and stir the potatoes and apples.

Step 9

Return pan to oven and roast for an additional 10 to 15 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked, its juices run clear (or until an instant read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the leg reads 165°F.), and the skin of the chicken, and potatoes are sufficiently browned.
