Wash the chicken legs and remove the skin
Using a knife make deep cuts on the chicken
Roughly chop one medium sized red onion
Pre-heat oven to 250°C
In a baking tray, lined with foil, place the chicken legs
Drizzle with olive oil, sea salt, freshly cracked black pepper, vinegar and pomegranate molasses onto the chicken
Rub the vinegar, molasses, and seasoning onto the chicken to coat them thoroughly
I always use my homemade chicken stock but if you are using stock cubes then dissolve them into freshly boiled water from the kettle and make a mixture
Scatter the chopped onion and garlic around the chicken
If using black garlic, squeeze them partly out from their skins so they almost melt into the stock while cooking
Pour the chicken stock around the seasoned chicken legs
Sprinkle some chilli flakes on top
Cover with foil and cook for 45 minutes
Once the 45-minute mark is done, remove the tray, oven the foil and using tongs turn the legs
Cover and cook for another 15-20 minutes
Then remove the top foil and cook at 200-220 °C until the little skin around the bones turns a nice brown
Serve with a side salad
During summer I like to serve my Vinegar roast chicken with a rainbow salad and a refreshing fresh salad dressing, recipe to follow on my blog soon. Stay Tuned!
