Step 1

Start by pre-heating the oven to 400F

Step 2

In a bowl, mix together all the spices until they're well combined. Remove about 1 tablespoon of the spice mixture for the onions, and use the rest of the chicken

Step 3

Wash and pat dry the chicken legs. If there is extra fat, feel free to trim it. Ensure you use room temperature chicken (take it out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking)

Step 4

Marinate the chicken with spice mixture, using your hands to evenly coat all the pieces. If you have time, you can pre-marinate for 1-2 hours in the fridge, but it's fine if you don't

Step 5

Thinly slice the onion into rings (or half rings is also fine) and toss in the spice mixture

Step 6

On a sheet pan, lay the onions in one layer, then drizzle with the olive oil

Step 7

Add the chicken legs on top of the onions, adding a few pieces of onion on top of each chicken leg as well

Step 8

Bake in the oven for roughly 30-35 minutes, until juice run clear and chicken is white on the inside (you can test a piece)

Step 9

Broil for 5 minutes if you want to slightly brown/crisp the chicken

Step 10

Garnish with parsley and lemon wedges. Serve with bread or a side of rice and enjoy
