All day taste, easy BBQ chicken legs:

These chicken legs are one of my daughter's favorites. The flavor is smokey and sweet. Hope you like them too! *Serves 4

Ingredients:

•8 chicken legs,

•2 cups of your favorite BBQ sauce, we like Stubbs Original. 

•1/2 red onion 

•1tsp of dried ground smoked chipotle (can substitute with smoked paprika),  

•1T Kosher salt, 

•1 tsp ground black pepper. 

•2T brown sugar or honey. 

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°

-Mix BBQ sauce with brown sugar and chipotle. 

-Sprinkle chicken legs with salt and pepper (I’ve found that the chicken is juicier and more flavorful if I sprinkle the legs with a little bit of salt a couple hours ahead of time...ifffff I remember). 

-Sprinkle the bottom of baking pan with olive oil, place chicken legs staggered around pan. 

-Cover chicken with 1/2 sauce mixture on all sides lightly. 

-Bake legs for 25 minutes. 

-Take chicken out of oven and flip over each leg, then re-apply more sauce. 

-Bake for another 20-25 minutes till the center reaches 185° or all juices run clear. 

-Rest for 5 minutes and enjoy! 

I love to eat these with baked fries and Brussels, but they go great with almost any side.
