Oven-baked chicken thighs with French fries are the perfect choice! This recipe is not only easy to prepare, but it also offers a delicious combination of textures and flavors. I will guide you step by step through this process, ensuring you achieve a perfect result. Ingredients: - 1 kg chicken thighs (preferably upper for juiciness) - 200 ml sour cream (for added creaminess) - 2 kg potatoes (choose quality potatoes, preferably for frying) - 3-4 onions (onion adds a sweet and aromatic flavor) - Salt and pepper to taste - Olive oil or lard (for greasing the tray) Preparation: 1. Preparing the ingredients: Start by peeling the potatoes. Wash them well and cut them into fries. Make sure they are of uniform size for even baking. You can choose to leave the skin on for a more rustic taste, but make sure to wash them well. 2. Marinating the thighs: Wash the chicken thighs and dry them with a kitchen towel. Season them with salt and pepper on all sides. You can also add spices such as paprika or herbs (rosemary or thyme) for extra flavor. Refrigerate them for 15-30 minutes if you have time. 3. Preparing the sauce: In a bowl, combine the sour cream with a little salt and pepper. This delicious sauce will coat the chicken thighs in the oven, giving them a golden and crispy crust. 4. Assembling: Preheat the oven to 200°C. In a large tray (ideally ceramic or cast iron), put the lard or olive oil. Add half of the cut potatoes and season them with salt. Place the chicken thighs on top of the potatoes, pouring the sour cream sauce over them. Add the sliced onions around the edges to caramelize during baking. 5. Baking: Cover the tray with aluminum foil and place it in the oven for 30 minutes. After this time, remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 30 minutes, or until the thighs are browned and the potatoes become crispy. 6. Serving: Once the dish is ready, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute, making it tastier. Serve the chicken thighs with French fries and caramelized onions on the side. A green salad or a tomato salad with onions can perfectly complement the meal. Variation suggestion: You can experiment with different vegetables, such as carrots or zucchini, which you can add to the tray for extra color and nutrients. You can also use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a lighter but equally delicious version. These oven-baked chicken thighs with French fries are a classic recipe, full of flavor and comfort, perfect for any occasion. Ideal for a quick dinner or to impress guests, this recipe will surely become your favorite!
