How to Make

  • Step 1: Preheat oven to 425F. Line a baking sheet with a piece of aluminum foil for easy clean up. Add a wire rack on top then spray rack with cooking spray.

  • Step 2: In a small saucepan over medium heat, add oil. When hot, stir in garlic and onions: cook for a few minutes, stirring constantly.

  • Step 3: Add honey and soy sauce. Stir together the broth and cornstarch. Pour into pan and bring to a boil. Cook until the sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

  • Step 4: Pat chicken so it is dry. Place onto rack and season with garlic salt and pepper.

  • Step 5: Place into oven. Bake for 10 minutes. Flip chicken and cook for another 10 minutes. Brush the chicken legs with some sauce and cook for another 5 minutes. Flip one more time and coat the other side of the chicken. Cook for 5-10 minutes, or until chicken reaches 160F and juices run clean.

  • Step 6: Serve chicken with/or coat with any extra sauce
