  • Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Meat and Protein

  • 2.5 lb Bone in chicken
  • 12 ounce Spanish chorizo

Vegetables

  • 3-4 Medium potatoes
  • 1 large red onion
  • 1-2 red bell peppers
  • 4-5 garlic cloves (roughly crushed)
  • 1 garlic clove (minced)
  • 2-3 tablespoons chopped parsley

Seasonings and Spices

  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder (+ 1 teaspoon extra)
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons paprika
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 - 1.5 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Oils and Sauces

  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Seasonings: Combine garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper in a bowl to create the seasoning blend.
  2. Slice Chorizo: Cut the Spanish chorizo into slightly thick slices to ensure it holds texture during baking.
  3. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking.
  4. Prepare Chicken: Pat the bone-in chicken dry with a kitchen towel to remove moisture. Toss the chicken with 1 tablespoon of oil, then sprinkle half (2 tablespoons) of the seasoning blend over it, coating thoroughly for maximum flavor.
  5. Season Vegetables: In a baking pan, add chopped potatoes, diced red onion, sliced red bell peppers, and the roughly crushed garlic cloves. Toss these with the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil and the remaining seasoning mix to evenly coat.
  6. Assemble in Pan: Arrange the seasoned chicken pieces in a single layer over the vegetables in the baking pan. Fill the gaps between the chicken pieces with the sliced chorizo. Cover the pan loosely with aluminum foil.
  7. Bake at 350°F: Place the covered baking pan in the oven and bake for 30 minutes to cook through and allow flavors to meld.
  8. Remove Foil: Carefully take off the aluminum foil without disturbing the arrangement.
  9. Increase Heat and Continue Baking: Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (note: original text states 4000°F which is a typo). Return the uncovered pan to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken skin is nicely browned and the potatoes are tender.
  10. Prepare Garlic Yogurt Sauce: In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper to taste until well combined.
  11. Serve: Drizzle the garlic yogurt sauce over the baked chicken and chorizo just before serving for a creamy and flavorful finish.

Notes

  • Ensure chicken is patted dry to get a crispy skin during roasting.
  • Adjust salt in the seasoning blend to taste, especially considering the saltiness of chorizo.
  • The addition of mayonnaise to the garlic yogurt sauce adds creaminess but can be omitted for a lighter sauce.
  • If potatoes cut unevenly, bake time may vary; check tenderness before increasing temperature.
  • The oven temperature stated as 4000°F is likely a typo; the correct roasting temperature is 400°F.
