Roast Chicken
Chicken leg roasted to perfect in a lemon and garlic blend.
Ingredients
- 4 Chicken Legs
- 2 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black Pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic Paste
- 1/2 tsp Turmeric
- 1/2 tsp Paprika
- 3 tbsp Oil
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1/2 tsp Ground Coriander
Instructions
- In a bowl add all the spices, salt, lemon juice and garlic paste and mix until fully combined.
- Wash the chicken legs and score them on both sides (this will allow the chicken to absorb more flavour from the marinade).
- Allow the chicken to marinade for at least 30 mins but the longer the better (ideally 2 hours).
- Once marinaded, place the chicken legs onto a hot grill. You can either use an electric grill, griddle pan or any other type of pan if you don’t have those to hand (these would also be great on a barbecue!).
- Cook on both sides for around 10 minutes total until the chicken starts to look cooked.
- Then place into an oven at 180 degrees Celsius/ 160 fan for 30 minutes, making sure you turn them occasionally.
- Once cooked, they should be deliciously succulent and have a great colour on the chicken, enjoy!
