Chicken legs in sour cream in the oven

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 2 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make chicken legs in sour cream in the oven? Prepare all the necessary ingredients for this. You can use any part of the chicken to bake this recipe, but I will bake chicken drumsticks.

2. STEP 2

   

   Chicken legs need to be marinated. To do this, place sour cream in a spacious bowl. Add salt and spices to taste. I added a little curry.

3. STEP 3

   

   Peel a few cloves of garlic, rinse and pass through a press. Add chopped garlic to the bowl with sour cream. Mix all ingredients together. The amount of garlic depends on your taste. For a more flavorful dish, add more garlic.

4. STEP 4

   

   Place the chicken drumsticks in the bowl with the sour cream and mix everything well so that the sour cream evenly covers them on all sides. Leave the legs to marinate for 1 hour.

5. STEP 5

   

   To bake, take any heat-resistant pan, grease the bottom and sides with a little vegetable oil. Place the legs in the mold. Spread the remaining sour cream marinade over the legs. Place the pan in the oven, preheated to 200 degrees for 45-60 minutes. Be guided by your oven.

6. STEP 6

   

   The finished chicken drumsticks will brown and become an appetizing golden color. If you pierce the stem with a knife, a light juice should appear. If the juice is pink, then the legs are not yet baked. To prevent them from burning, you can cover the top with foil. Ready-made chicken legs can be supplemented with any side dish. Bon appetit!

Like any housewife and mother, I cook for my family every day. While looking through recipes, I came across an excellent dish, namely chicken legs in sour cream, baked in the oven. This is an excellent protein lunch, which is also suitable for dinner. I took chicken legs, pre-washed, dried and processed with a burner, marinated in sour cream and garlic, added a mixture of dry spices. I had exactly the ones I love most, namely sweet paprika , black pepper, coriander, garlic, dill, basil and a couple of sprigs of rosemary. which adds not only aroma, but also creates a New Year's mood. I also decided to add some cute champignons. I covered all this beauty with foil in order to reduce the cooking time and preserve the oven clean. in my gas oven, the legs, one might say, were thrilled, first for about 20 minutes at a temperature of 200 degrees, and then removing the foil for another 15 minutes until a beautiful caramel color. I didn’t have to call my family twice for dinner. The aroma is wonderful and the taste was very pleasing. I’m very glad that I found this recipe, thanks and congratulations to the author!
