Set up your barbecue for direct cooking. Place a casserole dish (without lid) in the centre of the grill and add 2 tablespoons oil. Preheat on high for 10 minutes.
Oil the drumsticks and season them with salt and pepper.
Once the barbecue is preheated, leave the heat setting on high. Add the onions and garlic to the casserole dish and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. At the same time, add the chicken to the grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Once you have turned the chicken, remove the casserole dish from the barbecue.
