PLEASE HELP! Recipe for baked chicken legs please?

No BBQ sauce... no sauce period... no bread crumb or flour coatings either.





I just want things like olive oil and dry seasonings...simple herb-ish and kinda rotisserie flavor.....something to make the skin a lil crispy too.





So far I was thinking olive oil, garlic powder, and onion powder...

Put your legs in a roasting pan, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt, pepper, garlic, and some fresh oregano.(Some fresh lemon slices also go well at this point). Then pop it into a screaming hot oven...450 degrees, for 30-40 minutes. You'll get skin that is crispy, and tender, juicy chicken.PLEASE HELP! Recipe for baked chicken legs please?
Another possibility is to shake them with just a bit of oil, then toss in a bag with an envelope of ranch dresssing mix. Lay on baking sheet %26amp; bake 40-50 min @ 350..
there are good recipes at

Eat your own legs and leave the chicken's alone
Season with the olive oil garlic powder and onion powder, don't put on a sheet, you'll get dry legs. Put them in a glass pan or cake pan with water in it, not alot but enough to cover the bottom of the pan. Cook them at 325 for about 30-45 minutes with tin foil cover(sides open to vent). You'll have great baked legs and they will tender and moist not dry.


Hope this helps.
Baked Balsamic Chicken





This is how I cook baked chicken and it is amazingly good. It also kind of fits your description.





Ingredients


Chicken drumsticks


1/4 cup balsamic vinegar


1 tablespoon olive oil


1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano


1 teaspoon kosher salt


1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper





Directions


1 Preheat oven 400 degrees.


2 Arrange the chicken in a 9-by-13 inch glass or ceramic baking dish.


3 pour the vinegar over them and sprinkle evenly with the oil, oregano, salt and pepper.


4 Bake the chicken 20 minutes and baste with the vinegar juices.


5 Bake 20 minutes more (depending the size of pieces) or until juices run clear.


6 Serve chicken with juices spooned over them.
use shake n bake for chicken
You are perfect with the olive oil, garlic powder and onion powder, you just need to add some herbs - a bit of crushed, dried rosemary, thyme and oregano will be great. And be sure to lay in a single layer in the roasting pan or baking dish so the skin crisps up - if you have a rack you can set inside the pan that will help, too - more like rotisserie, because in a rotisserie the fat drips off, and the chicken isn't sitting in it. Also have the oven at a bit higher temp - 425 is good for roasting and crisping the skin!
put some zesty italian or butter cheese and some bacon it is the best
Just toss them in olive oil and garlic. Put on a cookie sheet and bake at 325 until brown and crispy, about an hour.
