Cooking Instructions

HIDE IMAGES
Step 1
First start with the marinade: In a medium bowl whisk together the zest and juice from Lemon (1) , zest and juice from Oranges (2) .
Step 2
Add Extra-Virgin Olive Oil (1/3 cup) , Whole Grain Mustard (3 Tbsp) , Honey (1/3 cup) , Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (1/2 tsp) , Garlic (3 cloves) , Fresh Thyme Leaves (1 Tbsp) and Salt (1 Tbsp) and whisk again.
Step 3
Place the Bone-In Chicken Legs (4 lb) , Carrots (3 cups) , Yellow Onion (1) , and Dried Dates (1 cup) in a large sealable plastic bag. Add the marinade and seal shut. Massage to make sure everything is evenly coated with the marinade.
Step 4
Place the bag on a rimmed sheet pan to protect against leakage and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight.
Step 5
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) and set an oven rack in the middle position.
Step 6
Transfer all the ingredients from the bag, including the marinade, to a rimmed sheet pan. Turn the chicken skin side up. Roast until chicken is lightly browned and cooked through, 40-45 minutes. Halfway through cooking, stir the carrots.
Step 7
Turn on broiler, and cook 1-3 minutes more, or until the skin is golden brown and crispy. Watch carefully because the honey in the marinade can cause the skin to burn quickly!
Step 8
Transfer the chicken, carrots, onions and dates onto a platter, along with the sauce in the pan. Sprinkle with Italian Flat-Leaf Parsley (2 Tbsp) , Scallions (1 bunch) , and Salted Pistachios (1/4 cup) over the top and serve.
