Spanish Chicken
This Spanish chicken dish is a simple, one-pan affair that bakes chicken thighs with onions, paprika, and lemon. Everything gets tossed together in an ovenproof dish, then bakes until the chicken is golden and the onions are tender. The lemon zest and juice brighten the rich paprika, while chicken stock keeps everything moist. It's a hands-off meal that pairs well with plain rice to soak up the juices.

Combine and Season
Preheat your oven to 190°C (170°C fan/gas mark 5). In a large, wide ovenproof dish, combine the chicken thighs, thinly sliced onion, paprika, lemon zest and juice, parsley, and chicken stock. Use your hands to mix everything together, ensuring the chicken and onions are well coated, then season generously with salt and pepper. - 02
Bake Until Golden
Bake for 45 minutes, giving the onions a good stir after about 20 minutes to ensure they soften evenly. The chicken should emerge golden brown, and the onions will be meltingly tender. Serve straight from the dish with a side of rice.
