CHICKEN

1 chicken
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon hot paprika
½ teaspoon curry powder
2 teaspoons sweet paprika
2 teaspoons salt
50 g butter
300 g creamy plain yogurt

SIDE DISH

rice

Instructions

1
Thoroughly mix the yogurt with spices and salt.
2
Cut the chicken on the breasts and thighs to a depth of 1 cm. Then thoroughly coat the entire surface (including the cuts) with the spiced yogurt. Place the chicken in a bowl, cover with cling film, and let it marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
3
Preheat the oven to 180 °C.
4
Place diced butter in a roasting pan, pour in hot water to a height of 0.5 cm, and place the chicken in the pan along with all the yogurt it was marinated in.
5
Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven and bake for 75 minutes, or until the thigh bone can be easily twisted. Baste the chicken several times with the pan juices during baking.

Tip

It is necessary to let the chicken marinate for at least 12 hours; this will give the dish its unique flavor. It tastes best with steamed rice.

Tip: For an especially delicate flavor, you can finish the sauce with a drop of lemon juice. Homemade spaetzle or wide noodles, which perfectly soak up the creamy sauce, are an excellent side dish.
