We all love chicken legs. They are the favourite part of our Sunday meal or late Friday brunch. The only problem is, though, you get just two chicken legs per chicken.
Now, there is no way for us to increase the count of chicken legs, but I can guide you on how to bake chicken legs at the right temperature so that they remain to be the favourite part of the meal for both you and your family.
In an ideal case, you can bake chicken legs at 400° for 20-25 minutes in your oven. If you want to go precise, you can also use a meat thermometer to know if your baking is done correctly or not.
You want to make sure it is not under-baked, because it then tastes like dead-rubber and you must have heard enough complaints if you are learning to cook recently.
Also, on the other hand, you do not want to overcook the legs to an extent where you spoil the meat.
Baking chicken at the right temperature and adding the right flavours to your dish does take some amount of patience and practise. But worry not, in few tries, I'm sure you'd be baking the best chicken legs ever. Happy Cooking!

400˚ for 30 to 40 minutes. That's a pretty hot oven so the skin will get nice and a bit crispy. 350˚ will also work 40 to 45 minutes for skin less crispy but good.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and bake the chicken drumsticks for about 40-45 minutes, turning them over after about 30 minutes.

in general, bake at 350 degrees F till they are done. Without knowing how big they are, there is no way to know how long. Use a meat thermometer. 165 degreed in the thickest part of the drumstick and they are done.

Bake at 350 degrees for about an hour. Check the temperature. It should be at Least 165 degrees, but over 180 degrees, it is burned.
