What you'll need:
1 package leg quarters (1.50 - 2 pounds)
1 stick of butter
garlic
salt/pepper
Season All
(Seriously, that's it)
I use a large cast iron dutch oven for this recipe. I've found that the cast iron ovens really helps keep the meat nice and moist while letting it crisp up on the outside. This recipe literally tastes like it was cooked outside on the grill!
All I did here was melt the butter in the dutch oven. While it's melting and getting nice and hot I pulled the skin off and seasoned the chicken on both sides really well. (Chicken needs all the help it can get) When the butter is bubbling really well I carefully placed each piece of chicken in the butter. Turned the heat down to medium and I put the lid on leaving a little lip for ventilation. Left it alone completely for about 10 minutes...turned and repeated. When juices run clear it's done. :)
