Prep and cook time: About 2 hours

8 chicken legs (thighs and drumsticks attached; about 5 lb. total)
2/3 c. minced garlic (about 3 heads)
½ c. lemon juice
¼ c. olive oil
2½tbsp. dried oregano
2 tbsp. coarse-ground pepper

Rinse chicken, pat dry, and pull off and discard lumps of fat. Put legs in a rimmed 12- by 17-inch pan. In a bowl, mix minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, pepper, and salt. Smear garlic mixture evenly over chicken, then arrange legs, cut side down, in a single layer.Bake in a 375 degree oven until skin is well browned, about 1½hours (1¼hours in a convection oven). After 45 minutes, baste chicken with pan juices every 10 to 15 minutes.Transfer chicken to a warm platter. Skim and discard fat from drippings. Add ½ c. boiling water to pan, stir to loosen browned bits, and pour sauce into a bowl. Scatter chopped parsley over chicken; garnish with parsley sprigs. Add sauce to taste.
