Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (375°F).

  2. Peel and cut the potatoes into bite‑size pieces and slice the onions; place them in a baking tray.

  3. Drizzle the vegetables with the specified amount of vegetable oil, then sprinkle the red chili powder, paprika, black pepper, dried thyme, and salt; toss to coat evenly.

  4. Arrange the boneless, skinless chicken thighs on top of the seasoned vegetables in a single layer.

  5. In a small bowl, combine the tomato paste, the remaining vegetable oil, and the milk; stir until smooth and then spread the sauce evenly over the chicken pieces.

  6. Bake the tray in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through and the potatoes are tender.

  7. Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes, then serve.
