Baked Garlic Parmesan Chicken Legs




3 lbs. chicken legs (thighs or other pieces will work too)
¼ c olive oil
2 to 3 t minced garlic from a jar
1 cup dry bread crumbs (can use homemade bread crumbs)
1 1/3 c parmesan cheese
1 t salt
½ t pepper

In a bowl, big enough for dipping chicken pieces in, combine olive oil and garlic.  In a separate bowl combine bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, salt and pepper.  Dip each chicken leg in oil mixture and then coat with bread crumb/cheese mixture.  Lay in an 11x15 baking pan or jelly roll pan that has been lightly sprayed with non-stick spray.  Bake 30 to 45 minutes at 375 until the chicken has cooked very well.  To check the chicken take a fork and stab at various pieces and make sure that any of the juices that run out are not pink but instead run clear.
