Creole Style Chicken Leg Quarters #5Fix - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (20 ounce) package Simply Potatoes® Shredded Hash Browns
4 chicken leg quarters (with skin on)
1 (8 ounce) container cream cheese with vegetables
1 large egg, lightly beaten
3 teaspoons creole seasoning

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
From the top side of each chicken leg quarters, make a pocket by using your fingers to separate the skin. Keep the skin intact at the bottom of the thigh. Rub the chicken leg quarters inside and outside with 2 teaspoons of Creole seasoning.
In a medium bowl, mix together the Simply Potatoes - Shredded Hash Browns with the beaten egg and cream cheese. Reserve one cup of this mixture.
Divide the remaining mixture into 4 portions and stuff the pockets of each chicken leg quarters. Gently pull the skin over to cover the mixture.
Place chicken on baking pan. Top each chicken leg quarters with the reserved potato mixture. Sprinkle the prepared chicken with remaining 1 tsp Creole seasoning.
Bake in oven for 1 to 1 1/2 hour depending on size of chicken leg quarters. About 10 minutes before being done, brush the chicken with liquids from the pan. Continue baking for another 10 minutes.
