Chicken with orange and lemon juice!


Simple, easy, quick to prepare, and delicious! Well you know what they say...the simple stuff in life are the best!

Ingredients:

1 chicken cut into portions

4 – 5 potatoes

3 garlic cloves or more if you like

1-2 tablespoons mustard

The juice from 3 oranges

The juice of a lemon

Half a cup of olive oil

1 -2 glasses of water

Salt, pepper, coriander, curry, and last but not least oregano

Preparation:

In a baking tin place the portion of the chicken and cut the potatoes in medium pieces...Add salt pepper, coriander, curry and the mustard. Use your hands to mix up all the spices in order to make sure that the spices are everywhere, chicken and potatoes. Squeeze the 3 oranges and one lemon and add the juice on the baking tin with the chicken. Add the olive oil, the garlic, the water(make sure that water covers your potatoes) and the oregano and off to the oven.
Cook it for about 1 and a half hour in 200 degrees.

Tip: don't pill off the garlic. Just wash it and use it with the skin. Don't try to use bottle orange juice ...big mistake!!!! The combination of the fresh orange and lemon juice and garlic makes the food so special and tasty! Also you need to slow cook the chicken in order to become tender and juicy. Good luck! and Bon appetite!
