Ingredients:

Serving

2 lb yukon gold potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
two 19-oz jars roasted peppers marinated in oil with garlic and herbs, drained, peppers cut into large pieces, 6 tbsp of the garlic-herb marinade reserved
3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tsp thyme leaves
salt and freshly ground pepper
6 whole chicken legs (about 3 1/2 lb)

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 425°. Lightly oil a large roasting pan. Add the potatoes, peppers, 3 tablespoons of the reserved garlic-herb marinade, the olive oil and thyme to the roasting pan. Season with salt and ground pepper and toss well to coat the potatoes and peppers.
Make 3 or 4 deep slashes in each chicken leg and set them on top of the vegetables. Rub the remaining 3 tablespoons of garlic-herb marinade all over the chicken and into the slashes. Season with salt and pepper.
Roast the chicken for 1 hour and 10 minutes, stirring the vegetables once or twice, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes and peppers are tender and crispy in spots. Transfer to a platter and serve.
Wine Recommendation: A light, tart red will complement the sweet peppers here. Consider a Chianti Classico such as the 2001 Nittardi Casanuova di Nittardi or the 2000 Castello di Bossi.
