One of my favourites, “Djej W Batata” this recipe is ridiculously easy and worth it’s baking time. If you want to add an extra flavor you can pre fry the potatoes. Also if you’re not counting calories its really good if you eat it with bread.

Ingredients
Method
- Slice the chicken sideways into strips (around 3cm thick) and place in baking dish
- Mix olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, sumac, salt and pepper well and pour over the chicken
- If you have the time, marinate in fridge for an hour covered
- Slice the potatoes and place above the chicken in the baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and sumac
- Preheat oven to 180C, once hot place the casserole covered into the oven
- Bake for 45 min covered, uncover and broil for another 15 until potatoes are red and crunchy
Hi, the recipe doesn’t say how to use the seven spices. Is it part of the initial chicken marinade?
Yes it is!
H8. What if the potato turns out uncooked?
if your potatoes are uncooked you can pre bake them in a pan and then assemble and bake the whole dish
Hello,
Do you cook/bake the potatoes first alone in the oven? Then add then to the chicken to cook together?
Yes i do that
I really like all your recipes 👍
How long do you pre bake the potatoes for?
