Chicken and Sides

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken pieces and coat them well with the seasoning mix. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the marinated chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Sides

    For Tostones: Peel and slice the plantains into 1-inch thick pieces. Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the plantain slices for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden. Remove and flatten each piece using a flat surface, then return to the hot oil and fry again until crispy. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.

  4. 4

    Prepare French Fries (if chosen)

    If using frozen French fries, prepare them according to package instructions. If making from scratch, cut potatoes into fries, soak in water for 30 minutes, and then fry in hot oil until crispy and golden brown.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once the chicken and sides are ready, plate the chicken with either the tostones or french fries and serve hot.
