👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Mix the oil, garlic, smoked paprika, hot paprika, cumin, turmeric, lemon juice, salt and black pepper and rub the mixture into the chicken.
    💡Dry the chicken before seasoning so the mixture clings to the skin; a longer marinade gives deeper color and flavor.
  2. 2
    Marinate the chicken in the mixture half an hour.
  3. 3
    Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  4. 4
    Scatter the onion over the bottom of the pan.

  6. 6

  7. 7
    Arrange the rosemary on the chicken.
  8. 8
    Bake uncovered 45 minutes, until the chicken is golden and the vegetables are tender.

    💡Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.
  9. 9
    Move under the oven broiler for 5 more minutes, until the chicken browns.
