Jeg har lavet en af mine yndlingsretter fra min barndom i Tyrkiet - Tyrkisk kylling

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: sunflower oil

Sunflower oil is more affordable and has a neutral flavor.

chicken thighs

🥗Healthier: chicken breast

💰Cheaper: bone-in chicken pieces

Bone-in pieces are often less expensive and still flavorful.

tomato paste

🥗Healthier: pureed tomatoes

💰Cheaper: canned tomatoes

Canned tomatoes can provide a similar flavor at a lower cost.

parsley

🥗Healthier: coriander

💰Cheaper: green onions

Green onions are a budget-friendly herb substitute.

Start by making the marinade for the chicken using yogurt, tomato paste, salt, black pepper, paprika, extra virgin olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, and finely chopped thyme.

Mix all the marinade ingredients together.

Add 4 chicken thighs (from 2 chickens) to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated.

Let the chicken marinate while preparing the vegetables; it can be made a day in advance for better flavor.

Chop the onion into wedges, and cut the red and green bell peppers into chunks.

Cut the potatoes into similar sizes as the onions to ensure even cooking.

Place the chopped vegetables into two baking dishes, adding salt and extra virgin olive oil, and black pepper to taste.

Pour 2 deciliters of water into each baking dish.

Place the marinated chicken thighs on top of the vegetables, brushing any remaining marinade over the chicken.

Preheat the oven to 185°C (365°F) and bake the chicken for one hour.

After an hour, check the chicken and baste it with the juices from the baking dish before serving.
