Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with baking paper. Melt the butter.
- Arrange the chicken legs on the baking sheet and brush with the melted butter. Season with smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and chopped rosemary.
- Bake the chicken legs in the oven for 20 minutes. Flip them and bake for another 10 minutes. Using a meat thermometer in the thickest part of the chicken, ensure the internal temperature has reached at least 165°F (we recommend 170°F for tastier chicken).
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
