Oven-Fried Persian-Style Yogurt-Marinated Chicken

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a large baking tray or line it with parchment.

In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, turmeric, cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken and mix until every piece is thoroughly coated.

Arrange the marinated chicken on the prepared tray. Scatter the sliced potatoes and onions around the chicken, if using.

Sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over the chicken and vegetables, gently pressing so they adhere to the surface.

Cover the tray tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes to cook the chicken through.

Remove the foil and return the tray to the oven for another 30 minutes, until the chicken is golden, crisp on top, and fully cooked. Serve hot.
