350, no lid, works fine. Legs and thighs add a lot of moisture, so you
don't need to add oil or anthing. Just add chunks of potatoes, carrot,
sliced onions, quartered lemons, garlic cloves, and what really works
great for this is celery root. Peel and chop in smaller than the
pototo chunks. This add a great roasting flavor and the celery root
gets soft and very tasty.
