Best EVER Chicken Legs

I adore roast chicken – there is no better way to cook chicken – it’s so juicy and packed full of flavour! Leg meat is my absolute favourite and they roast so wonderfully!

I was actually just cooking these to have on hand during the week but they turned out soo tasty that I had to jump on and share them with you too!

This recipe is Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Paleo & Whole30
