Amazing chicken!! I usually only cook b/s chicken breasts but DH and I love chicken legs and thighs so this was a change. I made it with skin-on chicken thighs and drumsticks. These came out crispy and juicy and so good! Will make these again. Going into my best of cookbook! Made for PAC Spring 2014.

A very easy recipe with tasty results. I used bone-in, skin-on thighs and adjusted the cooking time a little longer. Chicken had crispy skin and stayed juicy inside. Will be making this again. Made for Spring 2013 PAC.
