Chicken Legs with Mandarin Orange Juice

Juicy chicken legs oven roasted in mandarin orange juice, reserved from this orangelicious  Mango and Mandarin Slaw in yesterday's post. Or you could substitute orange juice.

Ingredients:

4 chicken legs, split

1/4-1/2 cup juice or light syrup from canned mandarin oranges (or just orange juice)

1 tbsp light olive oil

onion powder, smoked paprika, cumin and black pepper to taste

Mix the juice and olive oil together and pour over chicken pieces. Then add the seasonings to taste.

Bake in a 400°F oven for 35-45 minutes, basting two or three times.

Perfectly paired with this Mango and Mandarin Slaw.
