Cooking instructions

Cooking Mode turns the method into large, slide-by-slide instructions with timers, read-aloud, screen-awake and optional voice controls.

  1. 1

    Prepare the ingredients

    Preheat the oven to 220°C, or 200°C fan. Cut the potatoes into 2 cm cubes. Toss them with 1 tablespoon olive oil, half the smoked paprika, salt and black pepper. Finely chop the garlic and parsley and prepare the chicken.

  2. 2

    Roast the potatoes

    Spread the potatoes over a baking tray in a single layer. Roast for 30–35 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crisp. Remove from the oven and set aside.

  3. 3

    Season and sear the chicken

    Pat the chicken dry and season with the remaining smoked paprika, oregano, salt and black pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large ovenproof frying pan over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken skin-side down for 5–6 minutes until golden, then turn and cook the other side for about 3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Make the sauce

    Remove any excess fat from the pan if necessary. Add the remaining olive oil and garlic and cook for about 30 seconds. Stir in the white wine or chicken stock, chopped tomatoes and a little extra smoked paprika and oregano. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2–3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Combine and bake

    Return the chicken to the pan and spoon some of the sauce over the top. Add the roasted potatoes around the chicken. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the chicken is completely cooked through and the potatoes are crisp and caramelised.

  6. 6

    Rest and serve

    Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
