Preheat oven to 425F with rack on lower middle position.

In a bowl, combine all remaining ingredients to form a spice rub/paste mixture. Set aside.

Prepare

Use paper towels to thoroughly dry chicken legs of excess moisture. Use fork to poke holes on all sides of chicken legs.

Evenly spread the rub mixture underneath the skin of chicken legs - use clean hands to really press the mixture as far underneath skin as you can, as well as on top of skin.

Bake

Place chicken on large rimmed/foil-lined baking sheet, with space in between each piece. For smaller sized chicken legs, bake about 40 minutes. For larger sized chicken legs, bake about 50 minutes or until nicely browned.

Serve immediately, with drippings from baking pan.
