Boneless chicken breasts seem to never smell. Other cuts seem to vary in smell. The smell of these cuts is distinct from other meats. The smell probably depends on the bird's diet.
The easiest way to tell you what store-bought raw chicken smells like it to start with what it shouldn't smell like. It should not smell sour like vinegar. It should not smell yeasty, like bread dough that is rising. It should not smell of ammonia or chlorine. It should not smell skunky or sulfurous.

Can you cook raw chicken legs in spaghetti sauce?
Yes, you can do this. My mother in law always made spaghetti sauce with chicken legs and thighs (bone in) and meatballs made of plain hamburg. Heat sauce to simmering - don't boil it or it will splatter and burn. Add rinsed chicken legs / thighs and or meatballs into sauce, they don't need to be cooked, you add them raw. Simmer for about 40 mins, stirring gently after about 15 minutes making sure not to break the meatballs. Stir occasionally as it cooks. Serve sauce over spaghetti with the chicken on the side.
