These Roast Chicken Legs with Lots of Garlic are one of the best New Year’s Eve dinner recipes I know. I love the flavor combination of garlic, lemon, chili, bay leaves and pepper and I know you will too. Prepare this in advance and just throw it in the oven when you are ready to cook it.
I start this dish by placing chicken in a dish and seasoning generously. Add flavorings such as garlic, lemon, chili, bay leaves, and a few grinds of pepper. Pour oil over the ingredients and toss everything to coat. Place garlic heads cut side down so they are in contact with the baking dish to help them brown. Roast chicken until it is falling off the bone. Serve with freshly baked bread.
