Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
step 2
Clean and trim off any extra skin and fat off the Bone-In Chicken Legs (3 lb). Cut a few slashes in the skin.
step 3
In a large bowl place Oranges (3), Fresh Lemon Thyme Leaves (3 sprigs), Olive Oil (4 tsp), Fresh Parsley (2 Tbsp), juice of the Lemon (1/2), Honey (1 Tbsp), Garlic (3 cloves), Scallion (1 bunch), Ground Allspice (as needed), Fresh Ginger (as needed), Salt (as needed), and Freshly Ground Black Pepper (as needed).
step 4
Give it a good mix, then pour it over the chicken. You may marinate for a couple hours or use right away.
step 5
Massage the pieces of chicken with your hands to coat both sides, then drizzle on the remaining Olive Oil (4 tsp) over the chicken. Tuck in the Lemon (1) as well as the Fresh Lemon Thyme Leaves (2 sprigs) between the pieces of chicken on a roasting pan/sheet and place the Cherry Tomatoes (to taste) in-between as well.
step 6
Depending on the size of your chicken pieces, it will take between 1 hour and 5 minutes and 1 hour and 20 minutes. For additional color, you may hit the broil setting the last 2-4 minutes. Serve warm with sides of choice!
