Lemon Rubbed Chicken Legs With Garlic And Rosemary Recipes

GARLIC, LEMON, AND HERB RUBBED LEGS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl stir together all ingredients except the chicken. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the mixture for the grilled flat bread. Add the chicken to the bowl, and toss with herb mixture so that all pieces are well coated. Cover and place in refrigerator for at least 2 hours and as long as overnight.
• Heat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Be sure to oil grate when ready to start cooking. Let chicken stand at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before grilling.
• Place chicken on hot, oiled grill and cook for a total of 18 to 20 minutes giving it a quarter turn every 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer chicken to a platter and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a large ziploc bag add the chicken legs, melted butter, olive oil, oregano, paprika, garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Close the ziploc bag and toss everything together well.
• Place the ziploc bag in the fridge and marinate for a minimum of 30 minutes up to 24 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 450 F degrees.
• Transfer the chicken legs to a large casserole dish and place the lemon slices in between the legs. Bake uncovered for 30 to 35 minutes or until legs are golden brown and cooked through.
• Garnish with fresh thyme and serve warm.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH LEMON, GARLIC, AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Pat chicken dry and sprinkle salt on all sides and inside the cavity. Sprinkle with black pepper. Pluck the leaves from 1 spring of rosemary and sprinkle on the chicken. Place the other whole sprig inside the cavity along with garlic and lemon.
• Place the chicken on a roasting rack set inside a roasting pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

• Arrange the chicken skin side down on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, then flip and continue baking for additional 25-30 minutes until completely cooked through. The skin should be golden brown when finished baking.

LEMON-RUBBED CHICKEN LEGS WITH GARLIC AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Pat chicken dry and rub all over with a lemon half. Season with salt, pepper, and half of rosemary. In a 10-inch heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté chicken, skin sides down, 7 minutes, or until golden brown. Turn chicken over and squeeze juice from remaining lemon half over chicken. Cook chicken, covered, over moderately low heat 30 minutes more, or until cooked through.
• Transfer chicken to 2 plates. Add garlic and remaining rosemary to skillet and sauté over moderately high heat until just golden. Add water, scraping to loosen brown bits, and simmer 1 minute. Drizzle sauce over chicken.

ROSEMARY-PAPRIKA CHICKEN AND FRIES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees, and place a sheet pan on the oven's lowest rack to heat. In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, lemon zest and garlic. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer half of the mayonnaise mixture (about ¼ cup) to a medium bowl. Stir in the smoked paprika, rosemary, red-pepper flakes and ½ teaspoon black pepper. Season the chicken all over with 1½ teaspoons salt. Add the chicken to the bowl of paprika-mayonnaise, and rub it all over the chicken. Set aside.
• Halve the potato crosswise (no need to peel), then cut it into ¼-inch-thick fries. Right on the cutting board, drizzle with the olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
• Place the chicken breasts skin side down on the heated sheet pan, then scatter the potatoes around the chicken in a single layer. Roast on the bottom rack for 15 minutes, then flip the chicken so the skin side is up. (No need to turn the potatoes.) Roast for another 10 to 15 minutes, until the fries are browned underneath and the chicken registers 155 degrees when an instant-read thermometer is inserted in the thickest part. (The temperature will rise as the meat rests.) Let the chicken rest for at least 5 minutes, then cut the chicken meat from the bones and slice. Stir the lemon juice into the remaining mayonnaise mixture. Eat the chicken with the fries and a puddle of the lemon-garlic mayo for dipping.

ROSEMARY BAKED CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. If you have one that fits, lay an oven-safe rack inside the baking sheet, this helps get the chicken extra crispy - see note below. Spray rack with nonstick cooking spray.
• Pat the drumsticks dry, and then rub with the oil, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Arrange the chicken onto the rack/baking sheet.
• Bake for 20 minutes, turn the chicken, and then bake until an instant read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken reads 165 degrees Fahrenheit; 20 to 25 minutes. Let chicken rest 5 minutes, and then serve.
