This easy-to-prepare summer lunch or supper has only two principal ingredients plus lemon, onion, shallots, chili, standard herbs, spices and seasoning. It can easily be extended by roasting a few Mediterranean vegetables in with the dish or even with separate vegetable side dishes. The Jersey Royals have their own distinctive flavour but all new potatoes work well. Fresh herbs can of course be substituted.

Please note that the intention is for this dish to have a pronounced lemon taste so increase the lemon juice and/or zest if that better suits your palate.

I have recently reduced the quantity of olive oil.

Steps

75-80 minutes including prep

1

Pre-heat oven to Gas Mark 7 or electric equivalent (180C if Circotherm).
2

Arrange chicken portions, potatoes, onion, shallots 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 lemon zest, 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.
