Baked Chicken Legs Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 180 degrees Celsius.
• Place chicken in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Mix together the oil, soy sauce, ketchup, honey, garlic, salt and pepper.
• Pour over the chicken.
• Bake in preheated oven for one hour, or until sauce is caramelized.
• Could also use wings or pork ribs.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line baking sheets with foil.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan. Add the lemon juice, salt, black pepper, cayenne and garlic, and stir. Set aside.
• Rinse and pat the chicken legs dry. With metal tongs, dip them one by one into the butter mixture and place on the prepared baking sheets.
• Once all of the chicken legs are coated and on the baking sheet, take a pastry brush and give them one last coating of the butter mixture.
• Place them into the oven for 30 to 35 minutes, basting a couple of times during roasting. If they need a bit more color, turn on the broiler for a couple minutes and watch them closely.
• Remove them when they are nice and golden brown and fully cooked.

Steps:

• Arrange chicken thighs/leg quarters skin side up in a shallow baking dish.
• Sprinkle with garlic powder.
• Drizzle about 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce on each piece.
• Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 minutes to an hour, until the skin is crisp and brown and the meat is ready to fall off the bones.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.
• Line a large glass baking dish with foil. You can also add a baking rack to the pan to keep the chicken out of the grease and to help air circulate and make it crispier.
• Remove excess fat from chicken quarters.
• Separate the skin from the chicken, taking care that the skin stays attached at most points on the chicken. (You just want a flap. Do not remove the skin).
• Brush the chicken (under the skin) with soy sauce.
• Sprinkle some garlic powder, seasoned salt and dill weed on the chicken under the skin (I estimated the 1 tsp measures. Use as much or as little as you're comfortable with) and rub into the chicken.
• Arrange the leg quarters in the pan, skin side up, taking care not to crowd. They need space to cook properly.
• Brush both sides of the leg quarters with soy sauce.
• Sprinkle the skin with garlic powder, seasoned salt and dill weed (to taste).
• Place on middle rack in over and bake uncovered for an hour.
• After an hour, increase oven temp to 400 and bake 15 minutes.
• Chicken is done when internal temp reaches 165 (insert meat thermometer at thickest part of thigh, taking care not to touch the bone).
• Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Put some olive oil in the bottom of a 9x13 pan (just enough to put the drumsticks on).
• Add drumsticks (space enough apart so they aren't touching each other).
• Sprinkle generously with pepper and garlic powder. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Add rosemary to the chicken, if desired.
• Bake at 375° F for half an hour. Turn drumsticks over and add more garlic powder, pepper and salt (same as before). Top with the parsley.
• Bake another half an hour, or until cooked until 160°F.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place chicken legs in a large bowl. Spread chili powder, garlic powder, cayenne, and salt onto the chicken; pour sauce over top. Mix thoroughly and transfer to a baking sheet.
• Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 45 to 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

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.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a glass baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Spread 1/4 cup of olive oil over the bottom of the prepared baking dish and line up drumsticks on top, alternating directions so that they fit. Top with 1 tablespoon of butter each, on the thick part of the chicken. Sprinkle with garlic salt, seasoned salt, salt, and pepper.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Cover chicken with remaining olive oil; continue to bake until juices run clear and chicken is no longer pink in the centers, 10 to 15 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Serve.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip the chicken drumsticks into a large bowl and pour in the oil. Season with lots of salt, then add all the remaining ingredients and toss well to coat.
• Put the drumsticks into a large roasting tin, along with any oil and spices from the bowl, ensuring there is plenty of space around each drumstick.
• Bake in the oven for 20 mins, then flip each drumstick and bake for a further 20-25 mins until cooked through and caramelised.
