Directions
Roasted Chicken Breast With Lemony Bombay Potatoes, A yummy Jamie Oliver recipe , I thought this was excellent I love Jamie Oliver recipes because they are almost always simple, straight forward and full of flavor I made some minor changes which worked very well used 5 chicken thighs (bone in, with skin) and then doubled the rest of the ingredients except for the lemon (only because I didn’t have enough lemon to double) It ended up being perfect! The chicken was so crispy on the outside and flavorful The potatoes were flavorful, too I suggest doing the rough chop of the red pepper in large pcs so they won’t get too well done with the roasting The only other tweak I might do next time, is to not toss the potatoes in the spice mixture I loved the spices on the chicken, but think I’d prefer the taste of regular roasted potatoes with it That is just a personal preference I’m a purist when it comes to roasted potatoes! Thank you!, I was disappointed not to like this more as I usually like Jamie Oliver recipes This sounded so good, but it was rather bitter and the chicken was not cooked in the allotted time I think there is too much turmeric and it is not balanced by any contrasting element I suspect that the addition of carrots to the potatoes would go a long way to giving this the note of sweetness I think it needs Also, cutting the breast in two or three pieces would allow it to cook through without drying out
