Can you do this on the BBQ?
Yes, we have done that before, comes out less juicy but still good!
Amazing recipe! Very juicy and tasty! I too put the oven at 375,and I did turn them!
Thank You, one of our favorite weekly Dinners, Make sure to check out all of our Chicken Leg Quarters!
Never seen such a woman so slow to show something so simple. Took her 3 times to measure balsamic vinegar. Ridiculous. No to mention a couple things in my opinion were left out. But kids will watch anything
Maybe you should watch the video AGAIN! I measured the Balsamic and then added Olive Oil to the same measuring cup, there was NO 3 times of anything! And your opinion of missing something is ridiculous because you can do many different things with Recipes, there is No one way of anything! By the way, Kids watching my videos is laughable!
Why are you replying so nasty to people? That’s not professional at all… anyway, I sauteed the oil and garlic to release the fragrance and more robust umami flavor aside from permeating the meat. (I’m a professional chef) and I’ve done this recipe before. Quite a delicious dish.
I replied a lot nicer then that comment, I never said I was a Professional Chef, just a home cook who likes to create!
Your probably not even a real chef. And if you are what are you doing on pintrest. You should learn to love more instead of being hateful.
Thank you for your support!
I used rabbit instead of chicken. Absolutely delicious!!
Wow, Never have had Rabbit but I am sure the marinade was good on it!
I am making this for dinner tonight!
It looks delicious!
I don’t understand how people have become so RUDE!!
Ignore the hater’s!!
I enjoy scrolling Pinterest for ideas.
Yours caught my attention and it is about to go in the oven now.
Thank You! It is one of our favorite ways to Season Chicken Leg Quarters. Also, Thank You for your support and I try not let those people get to me.
I see what “Chef” Mary was talking about. You added liquid 3 times to the measuring cup to get the right amount lol!! So what? I do that all the time 😂😂 It’s just funny how people can be so petty. You rock girl!
Thank you, I also added Olive oil to the same measuring cup too, may have looked like 3, but yeah who cares lol!
I am 78 years old and see more of this pettiness every day, my grandpa had a saying “ if you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all “ I have not made this recipe yet, but it is my next chicken quarter dinner. Thank you for being so generous and sharing your recipe. God bless you.
Thank you for your kind words, this is a regular in our home, so delicious!
