Delicious, juicy and fragrant chicken legs with a crispy crust and thick sauce. The legs are baked on vegetables with apples, then poured with wine and broth. The legs are browned, and the vegetables turn into sauce. The sauce, I tell you, is delicious! Everything is simple and at the same time very tasty. Of course, it is more convenient to bake goose or duck legs in Bavarian, but a simple chicken turns out to be no less delicious. A wonderful festive dish!
