These baked chicken legs are so moist and have a delicious flavor. I made it tonight and served it with my potato salad and a green salad with a dressing that I rated on this site recently.

Thanks - you just suggested our dinner for tomorrow!


Thanks Debbie, this looks good too. I`ll have to find my "get up and go" and do this!!!


I'm not big on legs, but I love thighs. Sounds like Sunday supper. THX


Magpieno6 this is a real easy recipe and if you make extras they make a decent lunch for the next day.


Hi dandelion. Hope you enjoy the recipe. I hadn't actually made it myself till the other day and it was so good I just had to post it. Seems like one can easily end up making the same recipes out of habit but a bit of planning in advance lets one try new things. Let me know how you like it.


hi debra. guess what? i am just working on a radioprogramme about the perfect roasted chicken. since chicken leggs count too, i will make these on the weekend. lovely!


I made this with skinless, boneless chicken breasts and it was delicious, juicy, and indeed savory.


This is fantastic. I had planned on doing an outdoor BBQ chicken last night, but the weather was windy and cold. I moved inside. This looked great, and it is. I substituted Spicy Brown Mustard and skinned thighs, which is what I had, and it worked great. Jasmine rice goes well with it. A keeper. Thanks!


Debra.... the chicken was wonderful... but I knew it would be...I will definately do it again....Thanks for the recipe.....


Can you use something other than chicken legs? like breasts or thighs?? Would that change the recipe in any way? Thanks...


This dish was easy to make & the chicken was delicious. i used boneless skinless chicken breast because my husband does not like chicken on the bone. still tasty, although it is probably better with legs and thighs. i will make this again.


Works well on breasts.


I just made this chicken, again for the third time, however when it came time for the ustard I realized I was out of dijon. So I used regular prepared mustard, and it was really good. My husband loves this recipe (and so did all my dinner guests last night) Thanks


I just stared marinating the chicken right now. I completely forgot about the lemon juice though, and I didn't pick any up at the store. I decided to use ginger, since it's what I had. I'll let you know how it turns out.


Well it turned out wonderful with the ginger. Although next time I want to make this the right way with the lemon juice. It filled the whole house with a fantastic aroma. This marinate would be good on so many things, red potatoes, pork chops, vegetables, etc... the possibilities are endless!!!!


Savory Chicken coming up SOON - this sounds delish, Debra, and the picture says it all!


I make chicken at least 4 times a week I definetly have to try this is sounds so delicious Thanks


Sounds really good :)


Oh, I'm SO glad I stumbled onto this recipe, I am adding it to my meal plan for next month, can't wait to try it!


Thanks for the great recipe. I'm going to try it with breast halves.


This sounded easy and gave it a try. I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts, and it came out wonderfully. I will definitely make it again. Next time, I may add a little white wine or maybe some green onion while it marinates. Thanks for posting it.


Ooo this looks delicious


This looks wonderful!


WOW...can't believe I missed this til now...on my menu next week!!


Oh yeah, this is good. I didn't have any lemon juice so I had to sub with lime. Even my sis who doesn't like dark meat had 2 pieces!


I finally got around to making this. I have had it saved "forever." It was really easy as I always keep the ingredients around. Delicious! Added a picture, too.


Wow! Thank God for the IMI group, or I never would have seen this! Thanks Frankieanne for sharing this here. Looks and sounds fabulous. And by the reviews, it answers my question as to whether it would be good using boneless skinless breasts. Can't wait to try. Thanks Debra, if you're still around..... ;')


I'm making this tonight. But with chicken breasts. Let you know tomorrow how good it is. ;')


This was very good! Super moist even with boneless skinless breasts. Will be making again and again. High 5 Debra! Didn't get a pic because we were so hungry, we just dove in!


Found this thanks to IMI group....Looks wonderful!!
