👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Mix the oil, garlic, paprika, cumin, lemon juice, parsley, cilantro, 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
    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.
  3. 3
    Toss the potatoes in the rest of the mixture and arrange in the pan.

  5. 5
    Place the chicken on the vegetables, skin side up.
  6. 6
    Bake uncovered 25–30 minutes, until the chicken is done.
