Wabi Sabi Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 The grocery store had the really nice Bell and Evans chicken leg quarters on marked down to $0.79/lb this morning so I bought quite a few of them for the freezer. We eat chicken frequently (usually whole chickens or leg quarters) because I can usually find it cheaper than any other meat and although my family likes chicken we're all beginning to get a little weary of our tried and true chicken dishes. I need a few new ideas! Care to share your favorite recipe for any sort of bone-in, skin-on chicken? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjzimmer1 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Baked and the broiled for a few minutes with BBQ sauce soup Teriyaki Chicken Roast Sticky Chicken (tastes like Rotisserie chicken) otherwise I would just boil them up and shred the chicken for use in casseroles, chicken tacos, quesadillas, stir fry etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alenee Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Baked at 350* for about an hour, give or take, sprinkled with any yummy seasoning. We like Cajun. Yum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie G Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Crock pot with bbq sauce and then when done, put on a pan and broil so the skin is brown and crispy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK_Mom4 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Sticky chicken. Sauce is simple - 1 bottle Catalina Dressing, 1 pkg dry onion soup, 1 small jar apple jelly or marmalade. Mix it up and pour over the chicken. We like to cook them in a dutch oven, but it turns out just fine in a baking dish covered with foil or in a crock pot.

runbikeswim Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Oven fried chicken. Or you could boil them and shred the meat to make chicken and dumplings, chicken noodle soup or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Rose Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 My favorite way is to coat them in Ranch dressing and then dredge them in either Parmesan or a Parmesan/almond flour mixture. I also like to add garlic and parsley to the mix. Then bake at 350 until cooked through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KungFuPanda Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I like to prepare them like hot wings because actual wings are tiny and stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UmMusa Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I used 3 leg quarters today to make white chicken chili Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiseOwlKnits Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 My kids' favorite thing to do with leg quarters is to put them in a pan - sprinkled with rosemary and thyme - with cut up onions, potatoes, mushrooms and carrots. I usually put in some chicken bullion and water and then cover before baking about an hour. They devour it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraciWA Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Besides grilling them I like to use them in chicken adobo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a bottle of wing sauce in the fridge and some leg quarters in the freezer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbmamaz Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 This is a family favorite - original was breasts but better w dark meat: Make marinade: 1/3 c fresh lemon juice zest from lemons (zest before juicing - fresh zest makes a lot of flavor difference) 2 tb dijon mustard 1/3 c olive oil 5 cloves minced garlic 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp pepper 1 tb dried parsley Marinate chicken parts overnight Next day, wash small potatoes and cut in to quarters or so - should be 1-2 inch pieces. Toss potatoes in olive oil and salt in bottom of roasting pan (we use 2 pans) Put potatoes in cold oven, heat to 400 and cook about 5-10 minutes more stir potatoes and layer chicken on top, skin side up Roast 30 minutes, turn down to 350, roast another 20 minutes. May make lemony gravy from dripping - very tasty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
