Dress up chicken and stuffing with big chunks of sourdough bread and mushrooms. Finish off this slow cooked main dish with fresh gremolata. The lemon-peel, parsley, and chopped-walnut topping give it a fantastic citrusy flavor.
Ingredients
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 2 tablespoons finely shredded lemon peel
- 1 tablespoon ground sage
- 1 tablespoon seasoned salt
- 1-1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
- 8 small chicken legs (thigh-drumstick piece), skinned (about 5 pounds)
