Whole chicken with potatoes in the oven with a crispy crust

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to bake a whole chicken with crispy potatoes? Prepare all ingredients. Let's start with the sauce in which the chicken will be marinated.

2. Step 2:

   

   Combine mayonnaise, paprika, curry, salt and pepper in a bowl.

3. Step 3:

   

   Mix thoroughly until smooth. The sauce is ready.

4. Step 4:

   

   Next, take the chicken, wash it thoroughly, dry it with paper towels. I recommend taking chilled poultry, but if you have frozen food, then slowly defrost it by transferring it from the freezer to the refrigerator. So the meat will practically not suffer and will retain its juiciness.

5. Step 5:

   

   Coat the chicken with the resulting mayonnaise mixture, leaving a little sauce to mix with the potatoes. Leave the chicken to marinate for 30 minutes (it can be longer if time allows, but the meat will be soaked enough in half an hour).

7. Step 6:

   

   Wash the potatoes with a brush, peel and cut into large slices. Peel the onion and cut it into rings or as you like. To avoid irritation of the mucous membrane of the eyes, rinse the onion and knife with cold water before slicing.

8. Step 7:

   

   Put the potatoes in a bowl with the remaining sauce and mix.

9. Step 8:

   

   Put the onion on the bottom of the baking dish.

11. Step 10:

    

    Put the chicken carcass on the potatoes. Cover the mold with foil and send it to a preheated 180 ° C oven for 50 minutes (10-15 minutes). Then remove the foil and bake for about 30 minutes until golden brown. Adjust the temperature and time according to the specifics of your technique.
