Coriander Chicken Legs Recipes

CORIANDER LIME GRILLED CHICKEN LEGS

Steps:

• Put the lime juice, zest, coriander, cilantro, scallion and honey in the bowl of a food processor and pulse to combine. With the processor running, add the olive oil in a steady stream. Turn the motor off and add the salt and pepper. Pulse to combine. Pour the mixture into a nonreactive bowl and add the chicken legs to it. Toss to coat well and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Place a 10-inch cast iron grill pan over high heat for 3 minutes. Put 4 of the chicken legs into the pan and grill 3 to 5 minutes per side, or until the juice runs clear if speared with a knife. Repeat the process with the rest of the chicken. Allow to cool to room temperature and refrigerate until ready to use.

CORIANDER CHICKEN LEGS

Steps:

• Place the chicken in a single layer in a baking dish coated with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a small mixing bowl, combine remaining ingredients and stir until well blended. Pour the mixture over the leg quarters, turning them to completely coat them. Cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours for best flavor.
• Bake at 375, uncovered, 45 minutes to 1 hour or until meat is no longer pink in the thickest part, basting the chicken several times with the sauce.
