    How to Make Crispy Chicken Legs with Rosemary, Tiny Potatoes, and Sour Cream

    1. Preheat Oven and Prep Ingredients

    Preheat your oven to 325°F. Season the chicken legs generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, and lay them in a baking dish.

    2. Arrange Chicken and Potatoes in Baking Dish

    Surround the chicken with the small waxy potatoes, split head of garlic, and rosemary sprigs. Pour the olive oil over everything to coat well.

    3. Bake Chicken

    Bake in the preheated oven for 1½ to 2 hours. Once done, let it cool slightly in the baking dish.

    4. Crisp Chicken Skin

    Heat two tablespoons of the fragrant baking oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add two of the chicken legs, skin side down, and cook for about 5 to 8 minutes until the skin is crisp and golden. Repeat for the remaining chicken legs.

    5. Serve with Sour Cream and Chives

    Serve the crispy chicken legs with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of fresh chives.
