Method

1

In una ciotola, mescola l'olio d'oliva, il succo di limone, l'aglio, la paprika, l'origano, il peperoncino in polvere, il pepe nero e il sale marino.

2

Incidi le cosce di pollo con un coltello in più punti e mettile in un sacchetto richiudibile o in una ciotola capiente.

3

Versa la marinata sul pollo e assicurati che sia ben ricoperto. Chiudi il sacchetto o copri la ciotola e lascia marinare in frigorifero per almeno 2 ore, fino a 8 ore se possibile.

4

Preriscalda il forno a 180°C.

5

Posiziona le cosce di pollo in una teglia, eliminando l'eccesso di marinata. Aggiungi la foglia di alloro e copri con un foglio di alluminio.

6

Cuoci in forno per 30 minuti. Dopo questo tempo, gira le cosce e spennella con la marinata rimanente. Copri di nuovo e cuoci per altri 20 minuti.

7

Rimuovi il foglio di alluminio e continua a cuocere per ulteriori 10-15 minuti, fino a quando il pollo è dorato e cotto all'interno.
