Ingredients
  • 1 pieces chicken jointed into 8 or a 6-8 thighs, bone-in and skin-on
  • potatoes optional - we sometimes serve with rice
  • olive oil
  • garlic
  • thyme
  • paprika
  • salt & pepper
Instructions
  1. If you have a whole chicken, joint it into 8 pieces
  2. Put into a large roasting tray
  3. Add potatoes if using. If they are very small like the ones I used no need to par boil. Otherwise if you have large potatoes cut into small cubes
  4. Add several garlic cloves, leave skin on
  5. Add thyme
  6. Drizzle with plenty of olive oil
  7. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes at 180C, or until crispy and golden brown on top. Chicken is cooked when a skewer is inserted and juices run clear.
