- Super Quick, Easy, and Delicious Baked Chicken and Vegetables
Ingredients:
4 medium potatoes, chopped
3 carrots, sliced
1 head of broccoli, cut into florets
1 red onion, sliced
1 cup sweetcorn
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 teaspoon mixed herbs
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
Salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons olive oil (divided)
4 chicken legs
2 tablespoons tandoori seasoning
2 tablespoons butter
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Prepare the Vegetables: On a baking tray, add the potatoes, carrots, broccoli, red onion, sweetcorn, and cherry tomatoes.
Season the Vegetables: Season the vegetables with mixed herbs, parsley, paprika, turmeric, salt, and pepper. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Mix everything well to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated.
Prepare the Chicken: In a bowl, coat the chicken legs with tandoori seasoning and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Massage the seasoning well into the chicken, making sure to go under the skin for maximum flavor.
Bake: Place the seasoned chicken legs on top of the vegetables on the baking tray. Bake in the preheated oven for around 1 hour.
Halfway Mixing: Halfway through the baking time, mix the vegetables to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.
Add Butter: When the chicken and vegetables are cooked, remove the tray from the oven. Add a small dollop of butter on top of each chicken leg for extra flavor.
Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle fresh parsley over the chicken and vegetables before serving.
Tips and Tricks:
Cut Evenly: Ensure that the vegetables are cut into similar-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
Under the Skin: Massaging the seasoning under the skin of the chicken helps to infuse more flavor into the meat.
Crispy Skin: For crispier chicken skin, you can broil the dish for the last 5 minutes of cooking, but watch carefully to avoid burning.
Vegetable Variations: Feel free to substitute or add other vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, or Brussels sprouts based on your preference.
Leftovers: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to retain the crispy texture of the chicken and vegetables.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Can I use other cuts of chicken?
A: Yes, you can use other cuts like thighs or breasts, but cooking times may vary. Chicken breasts may take less time, so check for doneness sooner.
Q: What if I don't have tandoori seasoning?
A: You can substitute with a mix of paprika, cumin, coriander, turmeric, and a pinch of cayenne pepper for a similar flavor profile.
Q: Can I make this dish ahead of time?
A: You can prepare the vegetables and marinate the chicken ahead of time. Store them separately in the refrigerator and assemble just before baking.
Q: How do I know when the chicken is done?
A: The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F) and the juices run clear when pierced with a knife.
