When it comes to chicken, we’re always looking for two things: golden crackly skin and juicy, flavourful meat. Enter these baked chicken legs. They’re all that and then some — the “some” being a sticky BBQ glaze that really takes them above and beyond. They’re served with crunchy slaw, plus our favourite version of the spud: wedges. Ready to get a leg up on dinnertime?

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Add chicken drumsticks to a foil-lined baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then spread out evenly. Bake chicken drumsticks for 20 minutes. • Remove from oven, then add Louisiana spice blend, BBQ sauce and sriracha. Turn drumsticks to coat and spoon over any juices in the baking dish. Continue baking until golden brown and cooked through, a further 15-20 minutes.
TIP: The spice blend will char slightly, this adds flavour to the dish!
• While drumsticks are baking, cut potato into wedges. • Place wedges on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Spread out evenly, then bake until tender, 25-30 minutes.
Little cooks: Kids can help with tossing the wedges.
• Meanwhile, drain sweetcorn. • When drumsticks have 5 minutes cook time remaining, combine slaw mix, sweetcorn, baby spinach leaves, smokey aioli and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil in a medium bowl. Season to taste.
Little cooks: Take the lead by combining the ingredients for the slaw!
• Divide rainbow slaw, BBQ and sriracha chicken drumsticks and potato wedges between plates. • Spoon over any remaining sauce from the baking dish to serve. Enjoy!
