Directions:
- In a food processor or blender, purée all the ingredients except the chicken legs. Put the chicken in a large roasting pan and coat with the puréed mixture. Let the chicken marinate for about 30 minute.
- Heat the oven to 450°F.
- Cook the chicken legs in the upper third of the oven for 15 minutes. Turn the legs over and cook until just done, about 15 minutes longer.
- MENU SUGGESTIONS.
- Corn bread, rice and beans (or just plain rice), or corn on the cob would all taste great with this highly spiced chicken. Fried plantains are another appropriate accompaniment.
- The longer you can marinate the chicken legs, the more the flavor will penetrate the meat. We've suggested thirty minutes, but you can marinate the chicken for up to twenty-four hours.
