For Eden, “the simpler the better” for the holidays. That’s why she is making a sheet tray dinner that’s elevated—easy to put together and packed with flavor. Growing up, Eden remembers always having a paprika chicken dish on the table. Her version of paprika chicken captures that homey, comforting feeling too, plus leaves you with time to actually enjoy the holiday with family and friends. It’s not overly complicated and guests will surely be double dipping, laughing and having the best time, just how the holidays should be.

Ingredients:

  • 6 chicken legs- bone in skin on
  • 1 tablespoon sweet paprika
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 lemons- 1 sliced into thick pieces and the other one juiced
  • 1 head plus 4 cloves of garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Kosher salt, plus more for potatoes
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper, plus more for potatoes

Drizzle with the 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil and season generously with salt and cracked black pepper.
  • Step 6
    Toss it all together and then lay the marinated chicken legs on top with the skin side up.
  • Step 7
    Place into the pre-heated oven and let roast for 45 minutes to an hour until crispy.

    Remove from the oven and place on a serving platter. Serve with chimichurri.
