Chicken legs in marinade
I recalled the 90s, when many different dishes were prepared from the legs, and decided to make chicken legs for marinade for dinner. Of course, the legs are not the same - much better, and the marinade sauce is much tastier and more original, but the memories of youth pleasantly warm the soul. Chicken legs in such a sauce are very tender and extremely tasty. Meat baked in the oven can be served on the table with any side dish or vegetable salad - a wonderful dinner will be appreciated by all relatives.
Ingredients:
- 4 large chicken legs;
- 1-2 onion heads;
- 200 milliliters of grape vinegar;
- 80 milliliters of water;
- 120 grams of sugar;
- hot peppers - to taste;
- ground black pepper, salt to taste.
Chicken legs in a marinade. Step by step recipe
- Two heads of onions are cleaned, washed and cut into thin half rings.
- Hot peppers (we take to taste) finely chopped.
- Pour water, vinegar and put into a pan on a fire.
- Immediately send the chopped onion and hot pepper to the pan.
- Bring the contents of the pan to a boil, add sugar (according to the recipe) to the marinade. Mix well and bring to a boil again.
- After the marinade boils again, turn off the heat and cool the contents of the pan.
- My chicken legs, dry with paper towels, rub with salt and black pepper.
- We prepare the prepared legs in a deep baking sheet or heat-resistant baking dish, fill with a cooled marinade.
- Optionally, add one hundred grams of bell pepper sauce to the marinade and mix.
- In a preheated oven to 200 degrees, put a baking sheet with legs under the marinade. We will bake for 30-40 minutes.
I’ll tell you how to make bell pepper sauce.
- We clear one kilogram of bell pepper from seeds and cut.
- We clean one hundred grams of garlic.
- In one chilli pepper we remove the stalk, leave the seeds.
- We pass all the products through a meat grinder using a fine wire rack.
- In the mixture add 2 teaspoons of salt, 2 tablespoons of 6% vinegar, mix.
- Ready sauce can be stored in the refrigerator, in a closed jar.
Ready chicken legs, like my grandmother, put on a dish with the sauce in which they were baked. We serve rice, mashed potatoes, vegetable garnish - or any other side dish, to your taste. You can see the side dishes recipes on our site “Very tasty”.
