The most flavorful baked chicken

These chicken leg quarters are finger licking good 😋. They are seasoned with a dry wet rub. They are baked in the oven to perfect crispy skin and juicy meat! Best of all this is a budget friendly recipes and done in 45 minutes. Easy Peeezy.

I just love chicken. Chicken leg quarters are inexpensive to buy at the supermarket. They cost around 69 cents a pound. The secret to making them taste good, is in the seasoning! I love cooking with herbs and spices. It elevates your food to another level. This recipe will make your house smell amazing!

This wet rub consists of paprika, chili powder, black pepper, salt, garlic powder, Coriander, thyme, oregano, basil and olive oil. These ingredients are packed with flavors and are key to what makes these Chicken Leg quarters mouth-watering.

There isnt a specific amount you should use when making the rub. I will list a standard ratio of spices in the recipe. But you can always add more or less of the ingredients that you want. For example in my house we eat a lot of garlic and I love the taste so I always add more garlic. To make the rub you add all the spices in one bowl and mix in the olive oil.

You then wash the chicken with vinegar. You place the chicken in an aluminum tray, pat dry with paper towels and rub the mixture onto the meat.

Make sure to rub the mixture under the skin. This will penetrate into the meat and be super delish!

Once your meat is coated with the wet rub, bake them in the oven for about 40 minutes to an hour at a 400-degree Fahrenheit.


Look at how juicy this chicken is. Enjoy!
