Roast Chicken with Potatoes

Preparation Time: 60 minutes

Serves: 4 people

Ingredients:

1 whole chicken (cut into 8 pieces and washed well)

2 tsp salt

1 tsp paprika (ground)

1 tsp onion powder

1 tsp dried Italian herbs

1 lemon (juice)

½ tsp crushed red chili flakes

½ tsp black pepper

½ tsp garlic powder

2 onions (cut into quarters)

2 large potatoes (peeled and cut into large cubes)

Instructions:

Prepare the Marinade:

In a deep bowl, combine the lemon juice, salt, paprika, onion powder, black pepper, crushed chili flakes, Italian herbs, and garlic powder. Mix everything well to create a smooth marinade.

Marinate the Chicken:

Rub the chicken pieces thoroughly with the marinade, ensuring every piece is coated evenly.

Place the marinated chicken in the fridge and let it marinate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight for the best flavor.

Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to 250°C (482°F).

Prepare for Roasting:

In a roasting pan, add the onion quarters and potato cubes. Place the marinated chicken pieces on top.

Alternatively, you can place the chicken, onions, and potatoes in a roasting bag if you prefer extra juiciness.

Roast the Chicken:

Place the roasting pan or bag in the oven and bake for about 60-90 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the skin is golden and crispy. If you're using a roasting bag, make sure to follow the instructions on the bag.

Serve:

Once the chicken is roasted, remove it from the oven. Serve the roast chicken with the caramelized potatoes and onions hot, accompanied by your favorite dipping sauces.

Enjoy your delicious roast chicken with potatoes, a comforting and flavorful dish perfect for a satisfying family meal!
