Baked Chicken Legs & Thighs with Sun Dried Tomato & Bread Crumbs

Ingredients:

6 – Chicken legs & thighs

Sun Dried Tomato & Bread Crumb Topping:

4 - Vine ripe tomatoes
4 sun dried tomatoes
5 – Cloves of garlic
Healthy handful of fresh cilantro
Juice of ½ fresh lemon
½ cup of fresh chopped unseasoned bread crumbs
Dashes of fresh ground black pepper
Dash of sea salt
Drizzles of olive oil
Romano cheese - for grating

Preheat Oven to 350 degrees:

Clean the chicken and pat dry with a paper towel. Drizzle a little olive oil at the bottom of a baking dish and place the chicken in the baking dish.

In a food processor place of the ingredients for the sun dried tomato topping, EXCEPT the bread crumbs and give a few chops, leave it slightly chunky. Do Not turn it into soup! Remove the topping from the food processor and add the fresh bread crumbs to the topping.

Place the sun dried tomato and bread crumb topping on the chicken and grate a generous amount of Romano cheese on top. Drizzle a little olive oil over all of this and place in the oven.

Bake for about 45 – 50 minutes. Serves about 4

This is a tasty and delicious chicken dish; serve with a colorful side salad and a crusty loaf of Italian bread.

Enjoy with Much Love,

Catherine
