Stuffed chicken drumsticks
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Here is an interesting and simple recipe for stuffed chicken thighs. I'm sure you'll love this dish both in taste and appearance—I'd give it top marks! I highly recommend you try it: the light lemon tang softens the saltiness of the feta cheese, while the nuts in the filling add a special touch. Give it a try! The dish is ready to be served.

2. Now wrap each piece with a slice of bacon and secure it at the bottom. Place them in a baking dish. Separately, mix tomato paste and egg, blend until smooth, pour this mixture over the dish and put it in the oven. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan and lemon zest.

3. I baked it in the oven at 190 degrees for half an hour. The main thing is that when you pierce the chicken, no pink juice should come out; as soon as the juice becomes clear or disappears completely, the chicken is ready!
