Ingredients
- 4 chicken leg quarters
- 1 tbsp steak seasoning
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 big sweet onion
- 1 tbsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp red pepper flakes crushed
- 2 tbsp hot sauce
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 bottle the lemon-flavored beverage of about 2 liters
Instructions
- Before cooking this tender dish, you need to preheat the grill to reach at least 350 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly oil the grate.
- After that, make a mixture of lemon-flavored beverages, hot sauce, sugar, pepper, onion, and red pepper in a big pot. Put all the legs in this mixture and take to a boil to cook for about 30-45 minutes. It is essential to wait until the legs have an internal temperature of above 180 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Remove the onion slices from this mixture and place them on the grill. You will need to put the leg over these onion slices. Then to deliver a good taste and smell to the dish, you drizzle with a bit of honey and use steak seasoning. Grill and turn the side after 20 minutes. Plus, you can cook until the chicken legs have a tender and crisp browned crust layer.
- Plate the legs and enjoy the zingy and spicy flavors.
