Directions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This step is crucial as it ensures even cooking and that the tremendous flavors meld perfectly during baking.
-
In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, ketchup, water, and onion soup mix until well combined. Take a moment to admire the blend; this mixture will become the flavorful sauce that coats our chicken.
-
Place the chicken legs in a baking dish and pour the mixture over them, ensuring each piece is generously coated. This mixture not only adds flavor but also helps develop that tremendous glaze we all love.
