Wash the 1.5 kg chicken thoroughly and pat it dry with a kitchen towel.

Using a sharp knife, cut the chicken into eight pieces: four breast pieces, thighs, and drumsticks. You can also use poultry shears to cut the chicken into pieces.

Grease a baking dish with a little olive oil and place the chicken pieces in the dish. Drizzle a little lemon juice over them and season with paprika, salt, and freshly ground pepper.

Add a bit of water to the bottom of the dish for a nice sauce when the chicken is done. You can also add some chicken broth. Add more water during cooking if needed to prevent drying out.

Place the dish in a preheated oven at 200 degrees Celsius (fan oven) and roast the chicken for about 40-45 minutes.

Remove the dish and let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before serving.

If you want sauce for your chicken, you can boil the drippings with a bit of cream, currant jelly, and gastrique, and season with salt and pepper. You can thicken it with a bit of cornstarch mixed in cold water.
