Put 100 ml olive oil, 1 tsp sweet paprika powder, 1 tsp hot paprika powder, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp thyme and 3 pressed cloves of garlic in the mixing bowl and stir for 10 sec./speed 3.

Marinate chicken

Brush the chicken legs with the marinade (important: also put some under the skin!). Add the remaining marinade except for 1 - 2 tsp to the potato-carrot mixture and mix well, season with salt if necessary.

Baking

Put the vegetable mixture in a large baking dish, place the chicken legs on top and bake at 200°C for 60 - 70 minutes. If necessary, brush with remaining marinade.
