In this supersimple dish from Justin Chapple, chicken legs roast on top of torn pieces of bread that absorb the rich and tangy juices, becoming deliciously crisp and chewy. Slideshow: More Roast Chicken Recipes
I've made this at least a dozen times. It's my go-to for dinner parties (pre-Covid, obviously). It's quick to put together, and beautiful to present. The chicken is crispy, the lemons and shallots caramelized and delicious (eat the whole lemon). Caperberries are hard to find, so I buy several jars when I find them but they work beautifully. This is hands down our favourite dish to serve and eat. I usually use just thighs--easier to find. Unlike most recipes (where I don't measure) I've found that the best results come from watching the proportions (crispy, chewy bread -instead of soggy from too much liquid). It's worth the extra effort to measure. Amazing dish.
