Using chicken legs instead of a whole bird means you can have a comforting roast chicken dinner on a weeknight.

2 medium onions, cut into wedges
500 g new potatoes, unpeeled and large ones halved
6 garlic cloves, crushed and peeled
2 tbsp canola oil, divided
1 1/2 tsp herbes de Provence, divided
1/2 tsp salt, divided
1/4 tsp pepper, divided
4 skin-on chicken legs, (1 kg)
1 lemon, halved
PLACE a rimmed baking sheet in oven and preheat oven to 450F.
TOSS vegetables and garlic with 1 tbsp oil, 1/2 tsp herbes de Provence, ¼ tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper in a large bowl.
DRIZZLE chicken with remaining 1 tbsp oil, then sprinkle with remaining 1 tsp herbes de Provence, ¼ tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper. Remove hot baking sheet from oven.
