  6. Take 250 ml olive oil
  7. Make ready 5 cloves garlic, crushed
  8. Prepare 1/2 tsp dried rosemary
  9. Take 2 tsp dried thyme
  10. Prepare 1 tsp dried oregano
  11. Get 1 tsp cumin
  12. Get 1 tsp sea salt
  13. Take Ground black pepper
  14. Prepare 150 ml dry white wine

The chicken breast is generously coated in parmesan and pan-fried to give it a crispy crust. The chicken is then smothered in a lemon butter sauce with garlic that adds so much flavor to the chicken. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle them liberally with salt and pepper. Lemon is acidic and helps balance the stronger flavor of the dark meat in thighs and legs, and the fat from the chicken skin.

Steps to make Lemon Chicken & Potato Oven Bake:
  1. Pre-heat oven to Gas Mark 7 or electric equivalent (180C if Circotherm).
  2. Arrange chicken portions, potatoes, onion and peppers in an oven-proof dish.
  3. Mix the lemon juice, olive oil and crushed garlic together and pour evenly over the chicken, potatoes, onion and peppers.
  4. Mix the rosemary, thyme, oregano, cumin, sea salt and pepper together and “cast” it like seed evenly over the chicken and potatoes.
  5. Pour the wine gently over all. Gently turn the chicken and potatoes so that all sides are moist. The chicken pieces should end up on top, skin-side upwards.
  6. Distribute the chili, chili flakes and paprika evenly over all.
  7. Cook in pre-heated oven for 45 minutes, then increase the heat to Gas Mark 8 or electric equivalent (Circotherm 190C) and cook for a further 15-20 minutes until both chicken and potatoes are cooked.
  8. Sprinkle with coriander and serve onto hot plates. Accompaniments are not needed but some roasted Mediterranean vegetables and/or a crusty roll go well - however, this is a pretty substantial meal in itself.

Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle them liberally with salt and pepper. Lemon is acidic and helps balance the stronger flavor of the dark meat in thighs and legs, and the fat from the chicken skin. Of course, you can use chicken breasts if you prefer. Depending on the size of your pieces, you probably won't need to cook them as long as thighs. In a shallow bowl, combine flour and pepper; dredge the chicken.
