Sheet Pan Spanish-Style Chicken Legs with Potatoes
Sheet Pan Spanish-Style Chicken Legs with Potatoes
4 bone-in, skin-on chicken drumsticks (about 1 lb)
2 T. olive oil, divided
½ T. smoked paprika (or use other paprika)
½ tsp. salt, divided
½ tsp. pepper, divided
¾ lb. small red potatoes, quartered
1 red onion, cut into thin wedges
1 lemon, cut into wedges
½ T. bottled minced garlic
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
Preheat oven to 450°F. Toss together chicken, 1 T. oil, paprika, ¼ tsp salt, and ¼ tsp pepper in a large bowl; place on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Toss potatoes with onion, lemon, garlic, remaining 1 T. oil, ¼ tsp each salt and pepper; surround chicken on pan with potato mixture. Bake 20 to 25 minutes until chicken legs are done and potatoes are tender; sprinkle with parsley. Note: For extra-crispy chicken, increase the oven temperature to broil after the 20-minute bake time and broil 3 minutes. Or to save fat and calories, remove chicken skin before serving. Serve with Radicchio, Orange and Olive Salad
