Ingredients

  • 3 1/2 pounds chicken legs Coarse salt 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 1 large yellow onion, halved and cut into 1/4-inch slices (about 3 1/2 cups) 3 large carrots, peeled and grated 4 cups store-bought sauerkraut

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Season chicken on all sides with salt. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; swirl in oil. Add chicken and cook until browned, about 4 minutes a side. Transfer to a plate.

Add onion to skillet. Cook, scraping up browned bits, about 1 minute. Remove from heat; stir in carrots and sauerkraut until well combined.

Transfer sauerkraut mixture to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Nestle chicken legs in mixture, cover with parchment-lined foil, and bake 30 minutes. Uncover, increase heat to 425 degrees, and bake until top is lightly caramelized and a thermometer inserted into thickest part of chicken legs (without touching bone) registers 165 degrees, about 10 minutes more. Serve immediately.
