Baked Chicken Legs
This chicken legs recipe is easy to make in the oven too! Start grilled chicken legs with a great chicken rub. Rub that all over your chicken legs, and then throw them on the grill. Making your own chicken rub is simple, takes only five minutes, and adds so much flavor to this recipe. If you want to take this recipe up a notch, you could leave the rub on the chicken for an hour before grilling it – or even overnight. My homemade chicken rub is perfect in this recipe. I love making my own homemade seasonings because they are so easy to adjust. If you are on a low sodium diet, you can cut back on the salt. If you are diabetic, you could replace the brown sugar with Monk Fruit. The customization for your needs is endless. After some testing, this is what I found that works best to get tender chicken without getting burnt skin from flare ups. The high heat from one side of the grill helps to cook the chicken which is over the low burners which won’t flare up. This BBQ Sauce is legit. It is one of my most popular recipes and for good reason. It comes together with simple ingredients that you likely already have on hand and is so easy to make.
