Juicy, flavorful chicken meat with a crispy skin. Tastes wonderful and is super simple to make.

Ingredients

4 chickens leg quarters , with bone and skin
0.25 cups olive oil
4 lemons , halved
4 teaspoons dried oregano
4 teaspoons dried basil
4 teaspoons garlic powder
4 teaspoons salt
4 teaspoons ground black pepper

Instructions

1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2

Place chicken legs in a deep, large baking dish. Massage 1 tablespoon olive oil onto each chicken leg. Squeeze lemon juice over the chicken. Arrange lemons around the chicken.
3

Mix oregano, basil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper together in a bowl; sprinkle evenly over each chicken leg, flipping the chicken to season both sides.
4

Cook chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
