SIMPLE BAKED CHICKEN LEGS

We have some family members who love chicken legs, and every now and then, I have enough to treat them. This recipe starts with a simple salt water brine that makes them tender and juicy and removes discoloration that is sometimes found along the bone. Season it up with Italian flavors, as suggested, or use your own favorite combo!

Steps:

  • Place chicken legs in a medium bowl.
  • Stir water and salt together in a separate bowl until salt dissolves. Pour salt water over the chicken legs, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 24 hours.
  • When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a pan large enough to accommodate the chicken legs without crowding them, about 8-inch square.
  • Drain chicken legs and pat dry. Coat with oil, then sprinkle both sides with rosemary and pepper. Place in the prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 35 to 40 minutes, turning halfway through. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Arrange on a platter and garnish with rosemary sprig. Serve warm.

37 BEST CHICKEN LEG RECIPES AND DRUMSTICK RECIPES

From epicurious.com
  • Double-the-Mustard Chicken With Potatoes and Greens. Chicken leg recipes are among our favorite weeknight dinners, especially when they make chicken as flavorful as this tangy dish.
  • Roast Chicken Legs with Lots of Garlic. If you have the time, season the chicken with salt the night before and chill uncovered so the skin will dry out a bit.
  • Grilled Chicken Drumsticks With Savory Caramel. It takes some practice (and a few clever moves) to make great chicken on your grill. Cooking these chicken drumsticks over indirect heat gives them time to render fully and start to crisp so they won't become gluey when glazed.
  • Green Curry Vinegar Chicken. Thai green curry paste packs potent flavor into this one-pan, eight-ingredient, weeknight-friendly chicken dinner. Homemade green curry paste is really special and vibrant, but we also have a recommendation for the best store-bought brand.
  • Gochujang-Braised Chicken and Crispy Rice. This chicken drumstick recipe gets its bold flavor punch from savory-spicy gochujang, fresh ginger, garlic, and mustard powder.
