INGREDIENTS
4 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 teaspoon dried leaf oregano
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 chicken leg quarters
1/2 cup chicken broth (part dry Apple cider viniger, if desired)

PREPARATION


Heat the oven to 425°.


Lightly oil a 9-by-13-by-2-inch baking dish or line it with foil.


Combine the garlic, oregano, salt, chili powder, cumin, and black pepper in a small bowl. Add olive oil and mix well. Use a mortar and pestle to make a paste consistency, or mash it with a fork.


Snip off any excess skin and fat deposits. Arrange the chicken pieces in the prepared baking pan and rub the garlic mixture over each piece.





Pour 1/2 cup of chicken broth into the baking dish. If desired, use 1/4 cup of dry white wine with 1/4 cup of chicken broth.


Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until the chicken registers at least 165° F on a food thermometer.*


Serves 4.


*To check for doneness, insert an instant-read food thermometer into the center thickest piece of chicken, not touching bone. According to foodsafety.gov, poultry must be cooked to a minimum of 165° F.
