Roasted Chicken Legs . . . Sunday Dinner for Two!

Perfectly seasoned and crispy roasted chicken legs make for a tasty and easy Sunday dinner. It began with a simple DIY seasoning blend that can be used on two or 12+ chicken pieces.  A high oven temp then finishes the process. Add favorite sides and dinner is ready—it’s as simple as that!
