Step 1

Step 3
Mix everything well.
Step 4
Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and mix thoroughly so all the meat is coated with the spices. Cover the bowl and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Cut the vegetables into chunks (not too small) and place them on a large baking tray lined with parchment paper. Season with spices, drizzle with oil, and mix well.

Place the marinated chicken pieces in between the vegetables. Put the prepared tray into an oven preheated to 200 °C and bake for about 30 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender.
