Finger Lickin’ Sticky Chicken Legs
4 tsp. salt
2 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. thyme
1 tsp. white pepper
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. black pepper
chicken leg quarters– one seasoning recipe is enough for 5 lbs of leg quarters
1-2 C. chopped onion (vidalias are wonderful in this recipe!)
In a small bowl, thoroughly combine all the spices. Defrost leg quarters, and chop between leg and thigh, removing as much skin as desired (we find that the thighs have way too much skin on them, so I cut most of it off, but leave a little skin on them for taste!). Sprinkle seasoning on each piece, front and back, then place in a pan (I find the glass pans work very nicely). Sprinkle with the chopped onion. Bake uncovered, at 350 degrees for at least 1 hour. The onions will caramelize and turn very dark- that’s ok, they will taste incredible! (I throw in extra onion because I like them so much this way!)
