Description
Chicken and Potato Bake is a comforting oven-baked dish made with tender chicken pieces, seasoned potatoes, garlic, and herbs roasted together until golden and flavorful.
Ingredients
- 600 g chicken thighs or breast, cut into pieces
- 500 g potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)
- 1 small onion, sliced
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
- In a large bowl combine potatoes, olive oil, garlic, paprika, thyme, oregano, salt, black pepper, and chili flakes.
- Add the chicken pieces and toss everything together until evenly coated with the seasoning.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
- Add sliced onions and pour chicken broth over the mixture.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil, sprinkle Parmesan cheese if using, and bake for another 20–25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender and golden.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.
Notes
- Bone-in chicken thighs provide more flavor and stay juicy during baking.
- You can add carrots or bell peppers for extra vegetables.
- For crispier potatoes, broil for the last 3–5 minutes.
- Serve with a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables.
