Spicy and Seasoned Chicken

Spicy and Seasoned Chicken Legs  (Not Actual Picture.. Chicken was in different pan)

Rating: 8.5/10


Here lately... I have been trying to come up with some creative and cheap ways to make even the simplest food into yummy masterpieces... Well... in my mind anyways.. In order to be able to do this, I refuse to go grocery shopping unless there is almost no food in the house. With the exception of always making sure I have milk, eggs, bread, and cereal. So that is where my creation of the spicy and seasoned chicken legs came from.

Ingredients:
- Chicken Legs
- Extra Olive Oil Salad Dressing
- Salt/Pepper (Palm Full for each)
- Texas Pete Hot Sauce
- Seasoned Salt

All you have to do is place the legs in a pan, mix the Extra Olive Oil salad dressing, Salt/Pepper and 1/2 cup of Texas Pete (Or more if you want it hotter) in a bowl. Then pour the mixture all over the the chicken legs. Then afterwards, you sprinkle seasoned salt all over the chicken.. Not too much or it may be too salty. Just enough to gain some top layer. Bake in the oven at 400 degrees and it takes about 45minutes or so.

These ingredients was simply things I randomly found in my cabinets or fridge. You can use any sides for this but I used mac/cheese and mash potatoes.. But next time, I think I am going to make some homemade potato salad to go with this. .. YUM!

So why did I have give this a rating of 8.5? Only because the chicken was good, very moist and had a wonderful flavor. But I think that if I was to soak the chicken in the mixture listed above over night, it would have enhanced the flavor greatly. And I personally think it would be so much better if I used this mixture using boneless skinless chicken. But don't get wrong.. the chicken legs turned out really good.
