The combination of potatoes and chicken is familiar to us from childhood. Many variations and interpretations. But it is unlikely that you have come across such a hearty and simple recipe before. Juicy marinated chicken thighs in spicy spices with potatoes are perfect as a hot dish for a large company. The recipe, consisting of only 3 steps (marinate the chicken, put it on a baking sheet with potatoes and bake), will not leave anyone hungry.

How to cook Mediterranean Roast

Step 1

Rub the chicken thighs with salt, pepper and spices on both sides.

Step 2

Transfer the chicken to a deep plate, add more spices and a little sunflower oil. Stir.

Step 3

Cover the chicken with cling film and refrigerate for 30-40 minutes.

Step 4

Cut the onion into large half rings.

Step 5

Cut the potatoes into large wedges. If the potatoes are young, you don't need to peel them.

Step 6

In a deep bowl, mix onion, potatoes, chicken and sour cream. Salt to taste.

Step 7

Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Place the chicken and potatoes on top. Bake in the oven for 1 hour at 180⁰С.

Step 8

When the dish is slightly baked, brush the chicken with the remaining sour cream for a more appetizing crust.

Step 9

Check the chicken for doneness by piercing it with a skewer. Clear juice from the chicken indicates doneness, but if the juice is pink (with blood), then the roast should simmer in the oven for another 7-10 minutes.
