Ingredients
- 6 pieces chicken thighs
- 4 pieces large potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 pieces garlic cloves
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Peel and cut the potatoes into medium-sized chunks (about 1-inch pieces). Rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Step 3
Peel and mince the garlic cloves. Set aside.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken thighs and potato chunks. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with the minced garlic, rosemary leaves (removed from the sprigs), paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat everything evenly.
Step 5
Transfer the chicken and potatoes into a large baking dish or roasting pan. Arrange the chicken thighs skin-side up for crispiness.
Step 6
Pour the chicken broth and lemon juice evenly over the mixture in the dish. This helps keep everything moist and flavorful during baking.
Step 7
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the potatoes are fork-tender. Stir the potatoes halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Step 8
For a crisp finish, switch the oven to broil and let everything cook for an additional 5-10 minutes or until the chicken skin and potatoes are golden brown.
Step 9
Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra rosemary if desired.
Step 10
Serve hot and enjoy this cozy and flavorful meal!
