Steps:
- Preheat the broiler.
- Place the lemon and onion slices in a baking pan large enough to hold them in a single layer. Place the chicken on top and sprinkle with the oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Drizzle 2 tablespoons olive oil over the chicken. Rub the chicken to coat evenly with seasonings. Place under broiler to lightly brown the chicken skin, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Remove chicken from broiler and set oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Pour the stock and wine into the pan and cover tightly with foil. Braise chicken in the oven until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes. Allow chicken to rest in baking pan, uncovered, for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place a large saucepan over high heat. Add the milk and 3 cups water and bring to a boil. Slowly add the polenta, whisking constantly to prevent lumping. Reduce the heat to low and cook, whisking occasionally to prevent sticking, until polenta is done, approximately 45 minutes. Add the cheese, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
- Place a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Once the pan is preheated add remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and the greens. Season lightly with some of the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Toss with tongs, lowering heat if necessary to prevent burning, until wilted and tender, then check the seasoning and adjust to your taste.
- Preheat the broiler. Remove chicken from roasting pan and place on an ovenproof sheet pan. Remove and discard the onions and lemons. Pour the liquid from the roasting pan into a small saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until reduced to 1 cup. Place chicken in broiler and cook until skin becomes golden and very crispy, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Spoon 3/4 cup polenta onto each of 4 to 6 large plates, then place 1/2 cup greens on top of each followed by a chicken leg. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the reduced chicken cooking liquid over the top of the chicken.
CHEESY SKILLET CHICKEN AND CAULIFLOWER RICE
This cheesy chicken and cauliflower rice skillet bake is a healthier (and gluten free!) version of the classic casserole, jam-packed with vegetables while still boasting the flavors you know and love. The usual condensed soup is swapped out for low-fat Greek yogurt, and riced cauliflower subs in for the typical grain. The whole thing is topped off with reduced-fat sharp Cheddar for a rich, melty finish.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Whisk the lemon juice, 1/4 cup of the yogurt, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, half of the garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl until smooth. Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board. Pressing down on each breast firmly with your hand, cut it in half horizontally like a bagel, so you have 4 equal pieces. Add the chicken to the bowl and toss to coat. Let sit for 15 minutes.
- Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Let the marinade drip off the chicken, then add the chicken to the skillet. Cook, untouched, until golden brown on the bottom and no longer sticking to the skillet, 6 to 7 minutes. Flip the chicken and continue to cook until it releases easily from the skillet, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Add the onion to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally and scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan, until softened and translucent, about 7 minutes. Add the remaining garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Gently fold in the Parmesan, riced cauliflower, beans, broccoli, 1/2 cup of the Cheddar, remaining 1/2 cup yogurt, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Transfer the chicken and any juices back to the skillet and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar over the top. Bake until the cheese has melted, the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are warm, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Carefully lift the skin on the chicken thighs and spread the soft cheese between the skin and flesh. Sit the chicken in a roasting tin, skin-side up, and surround with the potatoes and halved tomatoes, cut-side up.
- Scatter the tomatoes with the garlic and a light sprinkling of sugar (this helps to bring out their natural sweetness). Scatter the thyme leaves and sprigs over the tin, season and drizzle with oil. Roast for 45 mins until the chicken and potatoes are cooked through with crisp, golden skin.

37 BEST CHICKEN LEG RECIPES AND DRUMSTICK RECIPES
From epicurious.com
- Double-the-Mustard Chicken With Potatoes and Greens. Chicken leg recipes are among our favorite weeknight dinners, especially when they make chicken as flavorful as this tangy dish.
- Roast Chicken Legs with Lots of Garlic. If you have the time, season the chicken with salt the night before and chill uncovered so the skin will dry out a bit.
- Grilled Chicken Drumsticks With Savory Caramel. It takes some practice (and a few clever moves) to make great chicken on your grill. Cooking these chicken drumsticks over indirect heat gives them time to render fully and start to crisp so they won't become gluey when glazed.
- Green Curry Vinegar Chicken. Thai green curry paste packs potent flavor into this one-pan, eight-ingredient, weeknight-friendly chicken dinner. Homemade green curry paste is really special and vibrant, but we also have a recommendation for the best store-bought brand.
- Gochujang-Braised Chicken and Crispy Rice. This chicken drumstick recipe gets its bold flavor punch from savory-spicy gochujang, fresh ginger, garlic, and mustard powder.
- Chicken Stew With Potatoes and Radishes. This one-pot stew takes its cues from chicken paprikash. Cooking low and slow is the key to getting deep flavor—and ensuring the potatoes are creamy and the chicken is pull-apart tender.
- Chicken and Tomato Stew with Caramelized Lemon. Comforting stew, but make it bright. This recipe amps up chicken legs and canned tomatoes with lemon and turmeric.
- Chicken Escabèche. Spiced with cumin and coriander and sweetened with golden raisins, this hearty, tangy chicken stew couldn’t be simpler to throw together.
- Curried Chicken Drumsticks. Braise chicken legs in a golden, aromatic coconut broth, then toss rice noodles with the warmly spiced braising liquid to serve.
- Yogurt-Braised Chicken Legs With Garlic and Ginger. Chicken legs are seared until golden-brown and then slowly braised in yogurt spiked with garlic, ginger, and lots of spices until falling-off-the-bone tender.
