Family Style Chicken

There's a local restaurant (shout out to Wright's Chicken Farm!!) that is famous for their family style chicken.  It is soooo good...crispy on the outside, tender on the inside.  They serve it "family" style with endless platters of pasta shells, homemade french fries, salad, and rolls.  You literally roll out of there!

I love this chicken recipe.  It's just as good as the restaurant version and only a fraction of the cost.  Most grocery stores often have chicken leg quarters on sale.  I love that I can feed my family of four for under $5.  Baking the chicken "low and slow" is the secret. 

Here's what you'll need...

4 Chicken Leg Quarters
Olive Oil
Garlic Powder
Onion Powder
Rosemary (optional)
S&P

Preheat oven for 250 degrees.  Line a roasting pan with foil (spray foil with cooking spray.)  Drizzle olive oil on the chicken and rub liberally.  Sprinkle with the seasoning of your choice.  Tent with foil (only seal 2 ends, leaving 2 sides open for steam to escape.)

Bake for 3 hours.  Increase heat to 350 degrees, remove foil, and bake another 30 minutes, basting every 10 minutes. 

Enjoy!!
