Roasted Chicken Provençal

Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken legs or 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ to ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 tbsp. Herbes de Provence
  • 1 lemon, quartered
  • 8 to 10 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 4 to 6 medium-size shallots, peeled and halved
  • ⅓ cup dry vermouth
  • 4 sprigs of thyme, for serving

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat oven to 400°F.
  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Put the flour in a shallow pan and lightly dredge the chicken in it, shaking the pieces to remove excess flour.
  • Swirl the oil in a large roasting pan; place the floured chicken in the pan.
  • Season the chicken with the Herbes de Provence.
  • Arrange the lemon, garlic cloves and shallots around the chicken; add the vermouth to the pan.
  • Put the pan in the oven and roast for 25 to 30 minutes; remove from oven and baste chicken with the pan juices.
  • Return to oven and continue roasting for another 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken is very crisp and the meat cooked through.
  • Serve in the pan, or on a warmed platter, garnished with the thyme.
