- 1 tablespoon olive oil melted ghee, melted butter, or melted coconut oil
- 1 leek cut into 1/2"-thick pieces
- 1 bunch of fresh radishes trimmed
- 1 1/2 teaspoons fine sea salt divided
- 2 pounds chicken legs about 5 legs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 pound chorizo cut into 1"-thick pieces
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped cilantro for garnish
Toss the leeks and the radishes in the olive oil and spread out on a rimmed baking sheet. Dust with 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt.
Dust the chicken legs liberally with 1 teaspoon sea salt, the garlic powder, and the chili powder. Place the chicken legs and sliced chorizo evenly between the vegetables.
Bake at 350 F for 35 to 45 minutes, or until the skin on the chicken starts to look crispy but the vegetables are not burnt.
Let cool for a few minutes, garnish with the fresh cilantro, and enjoy!
