- Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).

- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.

- Take the chicken drumsticks and rub the marinade all over them, making sure they're well coated.

Mix diced potatoes, carrots, and bell peppers with olive oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until coated.

- Position the marinated chicken drumsticks in the center of a large roasting pan or baking dish.

- Surround the chicken with the prepared vegetables.

- Roast in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

- Flip the chicken drumsticks halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.

- Once cooked, remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley.

- Serve hot and enjoy your delicious roasted chicken and vegetables.

- Vegetable Options: Don't be afraid to get creative with your vegetable choices - zucchini, sweet potatoes, and parsnips are all great additions.

- Spicing it Up: If you like a little heat, add some chili flakes or cayenne pepper to give your dish a boost.

- Herbal Infusions: Fresh herbs like thyme, rosemary, and basil can add a lot of depth and complexity to your dish.

- Chicken Options: If you prefer a different cut of chicken, thighs or breasts work well too - just adjust the cooking time as needed.
