MOCK CHICKEN LEGS
When my Mom was little, she would have this as part of her birthday party picnic. With it would be potato salad, dressed up B&M beans, potato chips, watermelon, brownies, and her cucumbers. Her birthday is August 16, so she remembers how it was always really hot, yet her Mom would still prepare everything for her special day. She would make enough for 2 skewers per person, and with all of her family that meant feeding 12 people. The amount of meat I have listed is an estimate, as the paper this was originally written on didn't list specifics, so I don't know how much she bought to feed that many!

SIMPLE BAKED CHICKEN LEGS
We have some family members who love chicken legs, and every now and then, I have enough to treat them. This recipe starts with a simple salt water brine that makes them tender and juicy and removes discoloration that is sometimes found along the bone. Season it up with Italian flavors, as suggested, or use your own favorite combo!

Steps:
- Place chicken legs in a medium bowl.
- Stir water and salt together in a separate bowl until salt dissolves. Pour salt water over the chicken legs, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 24 hours.
- When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a pan large enough to accommodate the chicken legs without crowding them, about 8-inch square.
- Drain chicken legs and pat dry. Coat with oil, then sprinkle both sides with rosemary and pepper. Place in the prepared pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 35 to 40 minutes, turning halfway through. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Arrange on a platter and garnish with rosemary sprig. Serve warm.
