Baked Chicken Thighsleg Quarters Recipes

FANTASTIC BAKED CHICKEN LEG QUARTERS

Steps:

• Heat a large cast iron or other heavy, oven proof pot over high heat. Add the olive oil. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
• Season the chicken liberally with salt and pepper on both sides. Add to the pan skin side down and leave to brown for 2-3 minutes. Flip and repeat. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Add all the veggies into the pan. If it looks like the pan will be too crowded, split into 2 batches. Add in the salt and pepper. After 5 minutes of cooking, add in the tomato paste. Stir to incorporate. When the veggies start browning, add in the balsamic vinegar and mix well. Immediately remove from the heat and set the veggies aside. Turn off the heat to the stove.
• Layer the chicken in the bottom of the pan. Top with the lightly browned veggies. Cover the pot and bake in the oven for 35 minutes. Remove from the oven, serve hot into bowls and top with the parmesan cheese. Happy eating!

CRISPY BAKED CHICKEN LEG QUARTERS (VERY EASY, ONE DISH)

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.

• Bake chicken in the preheated oven until skin is crispy, thighs are no longer pink at the bone, and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
