Bereiding

  1. Preheat the oven and make the spice paste

    • Preheat the oven to 200 °C / 400 °F.
    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the paprika, oregano, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper and most of the salt with most of the olive oil until a paste forms, adding a dash more oil if needed.
    • Toss the chicken thighs in the paste until evenly coated.
    Stap 1
  2. Prepare the potatoes and set up the rack

    • In a baking dish, add the baby potatoes with the remaining olive oil, the rest of the salt and a large pinch of pepper.
    • Toss to combine, then place the potatoes cut-side-down.
    • Set a wire rack on top of the dish and arrange the chicken thighs on it.
    Stap 2
  3. Roast the chicken over the potatoes

    • Bake until the thighs are crispy, lightly charred and piping hot through the centre, checking as the timing depends on the size of the thighs.
    • Remove the chicken from the rack and set aside.
    Stap 3
  4. Crisp the potatoes

    • Toss the potatoes in the rendered chicken fat.
    • Increase the oven to 220 °C / 430 °F and roast the potatoes until deep golden and lightly charred, tossing once or twice.
    • If they need longer, return the chicken to the oven for a couple of minutes before the potatoes are done to crisp it back up.
    Stap 4
  5. Make the romesco sauce

    • Squeeze the roasted red peppers over a bowl or the sink to remove excess brine, without rinsing them.
    • Blitz the peppers with the almonds, sun dried tomatoes, extra virgin olive oil, stale bread, garlic, sherry vinegar, smoked paprika, salt and cayenne in a food processor until smooth and well combined.
    • Thin out with a little more oil if desired.
    Stap 5
  6. Season and serve

    • Season the potatoes with more salt if desired.
    • Serve the chicken and potatoes with the romesco sauce, spooning some of the excess fat over the chicken.
