Description

Chicken legs are rubbed with spices, drizzled with tamari, and then baked to crispy perfection in this quick and easy dish that takes just 5 minutes to prepare and 45 to cook.

Ingredients

4 pounds chicken legs
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt
2 tablespoons tamari

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2 Place chicken legs in a large bowl. Spread chili powder, garlic powder, cayenne, and salt onto the chicken; pour sauce over top. Mix thoroughly and transfer to a baking sheet.
3 Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 45 to 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
