Ingredients

For the chicken

  • 6 chicken pieces
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste

Para la salsa de pimiento morrón

  • olive oil
  • 280 g canned roasted red pepper
  • 50 g brown onion chopped
  • 1 garlic clove
  • water as needed or vegetable stock
  • salt and pepper to taste

For the mashed potatoes

  • 1 kg potatoes
  • 50 g unsalted butter
  • 100 ml milk
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

For the mashed potatoes

  • Take the whole, unpeeled potatoes to a preheated oven at 200C for 1-2 hours or until really soft and well cooked.
  • As soon as they are cool enough to handle pass the inside of the potatoes through a potato press or sieve.
  • Place the mashed potatoes in a pot on medium-low heat and add the butter and milk and adjust with more milk if necessary until you get the consistency you like. Season with salt and pepper.

For the chicken

  • Mix the paprika with the olive oil. Rub it into the chicken pieces to cover. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Seal on both sides on a pan with olive oil on high heat. Remember not to move around the chicken too much so it can get golden.
  • Take to a preheated oven at 180C for 15-20min or until the pieces reaches 73C at the center. The idea is to not dry them out.

For the roasted red pepper sauce

  • Cook the onion on the same pan as the chicken with a bit of olive oil on medium-low heat until it's really soft and translucent.
  • Add the garlic and cook for a minute.
  • Add the roasted pepper and cook for a couple minutes until everything is nice and hot.
  • Season with salt and pepper and blend or process.
