    Instructions

    1. 1

      Preheat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius (400 degrees Fahrenheit).

    2. 2

      In a small bowl, infuse 0.5 grams of crushed saffron threads in 100 ml of warm chicken broth for 10 minutes.

    3. 3

      In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 tbsp of olive oil, 1.5 tsp of sweet paprika, 1 tsp of salt, and 0.5 tsp of black pepper.

    4. 4

      Add 1.5 kg of chicken pieces to the spice mixture, tossing to coat evenly, then add the saffron-infused broth, ensuring the chicken is thoroughly moistened.

    5. 5

      Distribute 700 grams of quartered potatoes, 400 grams of carrot chunks, and 1 large onion cut into wedges around the chicken in a large roasting pan, adding 4 minced garlic cloves to the vegetables.

    6. 6

      Roast the chicken and vegetables for 60 to 75 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, basting occasionally with pan juices.

    7. 7

      Sprinkle 2 tbsp of fresh chopped dill over the roasted chicken and vegetables before serving.
