Gluten-Free Chicken and Potato Combo
What you need:
- 1 bottle (12 oz) beer or root beer, at room temperature
- 6 pcs. chicken drumsticks

Microwave the potatoes on high for 5 minutes or until slightly softened. When ready, slice into 1/4-inch thick pieces lengthwise. Drizzle both sides of each potato slice with olive oil.
Place the marinated chicken and the potatoes on a pre-heated grill. Cook drumsticks until cooked through, about 20-25 mins, brushing with beer marinade occasionally. Grill the potatoes for 3 mins per side.
When cooked, transfer chicken and potatoes to a serving plate. Sprinkle with salt and serve with lime wedges.
