Ingredients

Step 1:

Place all the marinade ingredients into a small bowl and mix well. Add the chicken legs to a large bowl and season generously with fine salt. Add the marinade and mix to coat. Leave to marinate for 3 hours at room temperature. 

Step 2:

Add the pineapple juice, tangerine juice, mango, onions, garlic, allspice, cinnamon and guajillo to a cast iron pan. Arrange the chicken legs, skin side up and spaced apart in the tray. 

Step 3:

Roast for 30 minutes in your Gozney Dome (or Roccbox) at 250°-300°C/482°-572°F or until the skin is bubbling and lightly charred in patches. Turn the tray every now and then to make sure the chicken colours evenly.  

Step 4:

Once the skin is crisp and lightly charred, cover the tray with foil and roast for another 10-15 mins. Remove the foil and roast for a final 5 mins, then remove the tray and let the chicken rest for 10 mins.  

Step 5:

Discard the allspice, guajillo and cinnamon sticks. Arrange the chicken on a platter and pour the sauce, along with the onions, garlic and mango around the chicken. Squeeze over the lime and tangerine halves and serve.
