Crispy Herb-Roasted Chicken Legs with Lemon Garlic
Savor a perfectly roasted chicken leg accented with vibrant lemon garlic and fresh herbs. The skin turns crispy while the meat remains juicy and flavorful, making it a delightful dish for a satisfying dinner.
INGREDIENTS
1 large chicken leg (~200g)
1 tsp olive oil
½ lemon
2 garlic cloves
0.5 tsp fresh rosemary
0.5 tsp fresh thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to achieve a crispy skin.
Pat the chicken leg dry with paper towels to ensure crispiness.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, juice from half a lemon, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and thyme. Season with salt and pepper.
Rub the herb-lemon mixture all over the chicken leg, making sure to get under the skin where possible.
Place the chicken leg on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper.
Roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
