Instructions :

With a meat cleaver, chop off the nubby ends of the drumsticks and then chop in half.

Put the drumsticks and liberally sprinkle with salt in a non-stick pan and cook on medium heat for about five minutes.

Meanwhile, with a wooden mortar and pestle, grind the garlic, rosemary, and 1/4 cup of olive oil until it’s chunky and pulpy.

Drain the water in the pan with the chicken and add 1/4 cup of the olive oil and the fresh sage. Stir the chicken around with two wooden spoons for the first few minutes so it doesn’t stick.

Continue cooking for about five minutes.

Add the rosemary mixture to the pan and let it simmer with the chicken for about five minutes. Add the wine red or white wine.

Let the wine and rosemary mixture simmer together until liquid is silky and chicken is cooked through.

Serve as a main course after pasta.
