In a skillet, roast the onion together with the garlic until the skin starts to darken. Remove. Blend the onion with the garlic, guajillo chili, ancho chili, apple cider vinegar, cumin, oregano, and chicken broth until fully combined. Pour the previous mixture into a bowl, add Kikkoman® orange sauce, and season with enough pepper; mix until the ingredients are combined. Preheat the oven to 200 °C. In a previously greased baking dish, place the leg and cover it completely with the marinade. Cover with aluminum foil and cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes at 200 °C. Remove from the oven, take off the foil from the leg, and bake for 15 more minutes at the same temperature. Remove from the oven. Slice and serve with roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes.

Before putting the leg in the oven, remember to place a small oven-safe container with water and keep it throughout the cooking process; this will help maintain constant moisture for your leg.
