Add the drumsticks to the pot along with salt and pepper. Add water to cover, cover the pot, and cook until the vegetables and chicken are tender.
In a bowl, mix the lemon juice, flour, and water for the sauce.
Take a ladle of the cooking liquid and add it to the sauce mixture, stir quickly to temper, and let it cool slightly. Then add the sauce to the pot and stir well.
