Slow-Roasted Paprika Chicken
This super easy recipe combines everything in a single roasting dish – slow-cooked in the oven to create a mouthwatering spicy, lemony flavour
Pre-heat the oven to 160°C/150°C Fan/Gas Mark 3.
Mix together the paprika, sumac and olive oil. Put the chicken pieces into a roasting tin and add the garlic cloves, thyme and lemon quarters. Pour over the paprika oil and rub all over the chicken pieces.
Drizzle over the stock and season with black pepper. Cover the dish with foil and cook in the oven for 2 hours.
Remove the foil from the roasting tin, add the artichoke hearts and turn the oven up to 200°C/180°C Fan/Gas Mark 6. Cook for another 30 minutes or until the chicken is golden.
TIP: Cooking for less people? Serve leftovers for lunch the following day cold with salad.
