Step-by-step recipe

check off as you go

  1. Préchauffer le four

    Allume le four à 200 °C (thermostat 6-7). Laisse chauffer 10 min avant d’enfourner.

  2. Découper les légumes

    Épluche les carottes et les pommes de terre. Coupe-les en morceaux de 2 cm environ. Réserve dans un bol.

  3. Assaisonner le poulet

    Sers-toi d’une pincée de sel, de poivre et de thym pour frotter les cuisses de poulet des deux côtés.

  4. Faire revenir le poulet

    Dans une poêle chaude, dépose les cuisses de poulet côté peau vers le bas. Fais-les dorer 5 min à feu moyen sans toucher. Retourne-les et laisse encore 5 min.

    Tip · Pour éviter que le poulet ne colle, ne bouge pas la poêle pendant les 5 premières minutes de cuisson.

  5. Préparer le plat

    Dans un plat allant au four, dispose les morceaux de poulet dorés. Ajoute les carottes et les pommes de terre autour. Arrose d’une cuillère à soupe d’huile.

  6. Enfourner le tout

    Place le plat au four préchauffé à 200 °C. Laisse cuire 35 min en retournant les cuisses à mi-cuisson. Le poulet est cuit quand les jus sont clairs et la peau croustillante.

    Tip · Si les légumes ne sont pas tendres à la fin, prolonge la cuisson de 5 min sans couvrir pour éviter qu’ils ne ramollissent trop.

  7. Vérifier la cuisson

    Pique une cuisse avec un couteau : la viande doit se détacher facilement et le jus doit être clair. Si besoin, prolonge de 5 min.
