I know there are hundreds of roast chicken recipes out there, but this one is super easy and super flavorful. If you aren’t a fan of buttermilk, don’t worry – the chicken doesn’t taste like buttermilk. It just helps the other ingredients stick to the chicken, and also makes it extremely juicy!

Here’s what you’ll need:

• 6 chicken legs
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 5 garlic cloves, minced or grated
• chopped parsley (a handful if fresh, 1 tbs if dried)
• seasonings (I used salt, pepper and Tony’s)
• 1 tbs olive oil

Place the chicken legs in a gallon-size ziploc bag, then mix together all other ingredients and pour into bag over chicken.

Let sit in refrigerator for a few hours to marinate – overnight is even better.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and grease a 13×9 casserole dish. Place the chicken in a single layer into the baking dish, then pour the rest of the buttermilk mixture over top of chicken.

Now bake at 400 degrees for an hour, or until chicken is cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather use boneless/skinless chicken, reduce roasting time to 30-45 minutes. Your kitchen will smell amazing while it’s cooking!

If the chicken is done, but does not have enough color to it, you can turn oven to broil for a few minutes at the end to darken it up.

This roasted chicken is so juicy and flavorful, and also healthy – buttermilk is fat-free, right?!? It is also easy to make and you only dirty up one dish!

Enjoy!

Thanks y’all,
