This recipe utilizes a yogurt marinade with some Indian spices to give this very simple orange looking chicken its great flavor. I've paired it with roasted sweet potatoes to keep it color consistent, but swap in any other vegetable or side that you desire

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400F, and line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper (one for the chicken, the other for the potatoes)

Step 3

Transfer to a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 400F for about 45 minutes to an hour, or until the outsides are crispy, the insides are soft, and they are browned to your liking. This was after an hour, I overcooked them slightly

Step 4

Meanwhile, prepare the chicken. In a large bowl, mix together the yogurt, oil, garlic, and spices

Step 6

Transfer the chicken to a lan. Optionally, you can marinate the chicken for a few hours in the bowl (covered), or on the pan

Step 7

Bake at 400F for 12-14 minutes, or until the chicken just reaches 165F. Flip about halfway through. Start the chicken so that way it finishes at the same time as the potatoes
