BBQ chicken legs

Ingredients

  • 8 chicken legs 
  • 1 Tbsp garlic powder 
  • 2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning

For the BBQ sauce

  • 3/4 cup BBQ sauce (I used open pit tangy BBQ sauce)
  • 1/4 cup hot sauce .. this is optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven on 450F convection for 20 minutes.
  • Sprinkle salt, pepper and garlic powder over the chicken .Gently rub the legs with your hands to evenly spread the seasonings.
  • Arrange the legs on a baking sheet, lined with foil and fitted with a cooling rack. Using a cooling rack is optional but will help with keeping grease off the legs.
  • Bake the legs at 450F convection for 20 minutes. The legs should be browned and have a crispy skin.
  • Combine the BBQ sauce, hot sauce in a large bowl. Add cooked chicken and toss. Transfer back to the baking sheet and bake for an additional 10 minutes at 450F convection.
  • Remove the legs from the oven and serve immediately with your favorite side dish.This particular night we had baked potatoes and corn 😍
