Welcome to the kitchen and introduction to the recipe.

Discuss the origin of the recipe and the use of tangerines.

List the ingredients needed for the recipe.

Marinate the chicken with half a cup of tangerine juice, juice of one lemon, soy sauce, yogurt, grated onion, grated garlic, grated ginger, mayonnaise, ketchup, salt, pepper, and optional turmeric.

Grate the onion, garlic, and ginger for the marinade.

Mix all marinade ingredients in a large bowl and whisk together.

Coat the chicken thighs in the marinade, ensuring they are well covered.

Cover the marinated chicken and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for more flavor.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

Prepare two large raw potatoes by peeling and cutting them into pieces.

Place the marinated chicken in an oven-safe dish and pour the remaining marinade over it, adding the potatoes around the chicken.

Cover the dish with aluminum foil and place it in the oven to cook for about 1.5 hours.

After cooking, turn off the oven and switch to broil for 5 minutes to brown the skin.

Watch the chicken carefully while broiling to achieve a crispy skin.

Transfer the chicken to a serving plate, pouring the leftover sauce over it before serving.
