Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Preheat oven to 230°C. Heat olive oil in a frying pan. Rub chicken legs with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, then coat with 2 tablespoons flour. Place the chicken in the pan and cook, turning, until light golden brown, about 5 minutes.

Add the garlic, lemon zest, and lemon juice and stir. Place the pan with the chicken legs in the oven and bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, melt the butter in a saucepan. Add the corn and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until the corn begins to soften, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon flour, then pour in the milk and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and continue to simmer, stirring, until thickened, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the chives and add salt and pepper to taste.
