Chicken Quarters With Herbs And Garlic
From Cosmicmother 6 years agoIngredients
- 4 chicken leg Quarters, skin on (or 6-8 thighs) shopping list
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced shopping list
- 2 lrg rosemary sprigs shopping list
- 4-5 thyme sprigs shopping list
- 1/4 tsp sweet paprika shopping list
- 1/4 cup olive oil shopping list
- juice of one lemon shopping list
- salt and pepper to taste shopping list
How to make it
- Trim any excess fat or over-hanging skin from the chicken pieces, cut 3-4 slashes into the top of each piece and place it into a large Ziploc bag.
- Pull the herbs from the stems and finely chop, add this into a small bowl with the minced garlic and remaining ingredients and stir to combine. (Some lemons can be very tart, so adjust with more olive oil and seasonings to taste.)
- Pour the dressing over the chicken and mix so the marinade is rubbed into the chicken. Refrigerate for at least an hour or up to 4 hours. If you want to do this the night before, leave out the lemon juice and add it 1-4 hours before cooking.
- Preheat the oven to 400F convection or 425F reg. oven. On a greased roasting rack over a lined baking sheet, place the chicken and any remaining marinade over top. To stop the fallen bits from burning and smoking add some water to the bottom of the pan. (Tip: take the chicken out of the fridge before pre-heating the oven, to let it come to room temp. before cooking).
- Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the chicken registers 165F internally, near the thigh bone. And Enjoy!
