Chicken Legs on Cabbage

This is a low carb dish and easy to prepare in the oven.

I bought 2 organic chicken legs this week without any idea what to cook with them. Chicken thighs are so versatile and a recipe to cook them can be found anywhere. 

I was lucky and watched a Reel on YT. That was my inspiration for todays use of the chicken legs. I only bought a nice head of cabbage in the morning and I even know the perfect way to use up the leftover pieces tomorrow. 

Two weekend meals without a lot of planning. My other ingredient without a special recipe in mind was a package of minced beef and pork.

Ingredients:

2x 3 cm thick slices of cabbage, olive oil

2 chicken legs

35 g butter, paprika, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, herbes de Provence, Italian herbs, 1 tbsp Ssamyang spicy, 1 tbsp tomato paste, 2 tbsp water, caraway seeds

Marinate the chicken with 2/3 of the melted butter and the paprikas, salt, pepper, herbes, Ssamyang and tomato paste for 30 min in the fridge.

Brush the cabbage with the other butter and season with salt, pepper and caraway. Use an ovenproof dish and brush the dish with olive oil.

Set the chicken leg on top. Bake at 170 C fan for 40 min.
