  • Drizzle the Belmorso EVOO.
  • Bake in the oven for 60 minutes or slightly longer. You may want to check your potatoes and onions are cooked. Also, feel free to turn the chicken legs and thighs the other way round. I cooked mine at the lower level of the oven, so it took a little longer, but this helps it from drying. It wasn't dry at all.
    PS: If you want yours to cook faster, put it at the top of the oven half way through the cooking, and baste it with the liquid created in the dish every 10 to 15 minutes.
