Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to boil. Finely chop the garlic. Pick the thyme leaves. In a large bowl, combine the garlic, thyme, tomato paste (see ingredients), Italian herbs (see ingredients), brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, the salt and a drizzle of olive oil. Add the chicken drumstick fillet. Season with pepper, then toss to coat.
Slice the capsicum (see ingredients) into thin strips. Cut the red onion (see ingredients) into thick wedges.
Place the capsicum, onion and cherry tomatoes (see ingredients) in a lined baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil. Season, then spread out evenly. Arrange the chicken on top. Bake until the veggies are tender and the chicken is cooked through, 25-30 minutes.
TIP: The veggies and chicken may char while baking, this adds to the flavour!
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
While the veggies and chicken are baking, peel the potato, then cut into large chunks. Cook in the boiling water until easily pierced with a knife, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. Add the butter and milk and season generously with salt. Mash until smooth. Cover to keep warm.
While the potato is cooking, trim the green beans. When the traybake has 10 minutes remaining, remove the baking dish and add the green beans to any free space. Drizzle with olive oil, then season. Return to the oven and bake until tender, 10 minutes.
Slice the Italian chicken. Divide the baked veggies and potato mash between plates. Top with the chicken. Spoon over any juices from the baking dish to serve.
