Ingredients

4 small crisp apples (such as Empire or Braeburn), quartered

2 leeks (white and light green parts), halved crosswise and lengthwise

6 small sprigs fresh rosemary

2 tablespoons olive oil

Kosher salt and black pepper

8 small chicken thighs and drumsticks (4 of each, about 2 1/2 pounds total)

Preparation

Heat oven to 400° F. In a large roasting pan, toss the apples, leeks, rosemary, oil, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Season the chicken with ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper and nestle, skin-side up, among the vegetables. Roast until the chicken is cooked through and the apples and leeks are tender, 40 to 45 minutes.
