spiced chicken leg quarters with brown sugar & rosemary
“Indulge in a culinary delight with our Spiced Chicken Leg Quarters, kissed by brown sugar and aromatic rosemary. This flavorful fusion promises a symphony of tastes that transforms your meal into a savory and satisfying experience.”
Clearly, I am off my rocker.
I’m wondering if a time-out in a rocker would be a the best thing for me.
Wait. I don’t even own a rocker. Hold up. Can adults have time outs? I thought time outs were strictly for a five year-old melt down in the Wal-Mart toy section because she wants a Cabbage Patch Doll instead of a Dream Barbie. P.S. Would totally go with the Cabbage Patch Doll, by the way.
I have noticed lately my recipes are kind of Thanksgiving, but not-quite Thanksgive-y. I’ve made you guys Brussel Sprout Bacon Naan Stuffing, Pumpkin Naan Pizza (apparently I have a serious addiction to Naan), and today, I’ve whipped up Spiced Chicken Quarters. Plus, you don’t even know what’s coming at you on Wednesday. Let’s just say, you better hold on to your tots Napoleon!
Now, before I completely fall off the rocker, let’s talk about these Spiced Chicken Quarters. I realize chicken doesn’t scream Thanksgiving, but hear me out. If want to mix up your T-Giving menu and make something that doesn’t require babysitting or constant attention, these chicken quarters are a great alternative. You still get all the of juicy meat and the best part, crisp golden skin. Plus, the flavors from the brown sugar and fresh herbs makes you forget a big ol’ bird was even an option.
So, what do you say? Want to join me in this year’s “fall of your rocker” menu?

These are perfection! and I’m always ready to fall off my rocker… bring it gurrrl!
HA! I heart you, friend! Thanks.
Chicken quarters equals more crispy skin to meat ratio, which means I’m totally in!
LOL!!! I like the way you think, Courtney!!
I am ready to fall off my rocker!! These chicken leg quarters look delicious, and perfect! Who needs turkey anyway 🙂
Glad you’re on team rocker menu! Thanks, Cate!

Oooooh, that sounds delish! Thanks, Christine!
This chicken is looking GOOOD! I’m with you on the fall of the rocker menu. Sometimes I get so tired of turkey we eat Mexican food for the holidays!
YESSSSS! See, this is why we are friends! Thanks, Meagan!
Spiced Chicken Quarters – come to mama. These look delicious. I would have them for Thanksgiving, but I’d also have them every single chance I could get!
I’m sending some over ASAP! Thanks, Pamela!
Seeing as we don’t have thanksgiving over here (boo), I’m all for delicious recipes that don’t involve turkey! These are definitely getting made in my kitchen soon – such a perfect weeknight dinner.
NOOOOOO! You need to have an impromptu T-Giving dinner! I demand it. Oh, and you should definitely make these legs:)
I can just smell these cooking!! I love the leg meat on chicken..I think it is the best! Great recipe.
Absolutely! It blows chicken breasts out of the water! Thanks, Julia!
You just can’t beat rosemary and brown sugar. This is so my kind of chicken!
Thanks, Cassie! xoxo
These look amazing! I always need recipes for chicken parts..appetizing, I know.
Ha! I feel ya. Thanks, Cindy!
That my dear is stunning! The perfect fall meal.
Thank you, Sommer!! xoxo
We used to eat chicken leg quarters all the time growing up and they are seriously still my favorite. Crispy chicken skin = best thing ever. Love the spices you used here!!
Mmmm….crispy skin. Now, you have me hungry! Thanks, Tracey:) P.S. I wish I ate at your house growing up.
I was totally the cabbage patch kinda girl also! I loved that they came with birth certificates. So much more realistic than constantly pointed toes and boobs so big they make Pam Anderson’s look reasonable.
That brown sugar rosemary rub. Just, yes. And I don’t even eat meat. But yes.
YESSSSSS! I never understood the plastic cone boob syndrome! Jeez! But gurrrrrl, you will love this rub. Fo’ reals.
Yes puhhhleeze! That is all…
mmm I can already smell it from here!! I seriously love some crispy chicken skin with good seasoning! Haha, that sounded really weird though lol
Amazing! Lucky for me, I just bought chicken leg quarters! Love the spices you used!
Hi, thank for this easy recipe. I first saw it on Flipboard, thought I saved it but didn’t save. So I searched the internet for “chicken quarters with brown sugar in the ingredients ” and several came back but yours was the easiest, plus I had all the ingredients. Laura, it was delicious, will save your recipe to my phone. I had rice, which I really didn’t need, fresh green beans with turnips, cooked in bacon grease. I had a feast 😋
