• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place chicken in a baking dish and cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Turn chicken over and baste with extra marinade. Cover baking dish with foil once again and bake for another 20 to 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near a bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Whisk 1 cup flour, 1 tablespoon paprika, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper in large bowl. Add chicken pieces to seasoned flour, 1 at a time, and turn to coat. Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, skin side down, and sauté until brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to plate; reserve skillet.
• Arrange chicken in single layer in large ovenproof pot. Top with tomatoes and juice, prosciutto, onions, peppers, garlic, parsley, and bay leaves; sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon paprika. Add wine and Port to reserved skillet. Bring to boil, scraping up browned bits. Remove from heat. Whisk in mustard and tomato paste; pour mixture over chicken and bring to boil. Cover; transfer to oven.
• Braise chicken until very tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Discard bay leaves and parsley. Using tongs, transfer chicken and toppings to platter. Return sauce in pot to simmer. If thicker sauce is desired, stir 1 tablespoon flour and butter in small bowl until smooth paste forms. Add flour paste to sauce and whisk to blend. Simmer until sauce thickens to desired consistency, whisking often. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon over chicken and serve.

Steps:

• Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Place the chicken in a heavy bag and set in a large bowl.
• In a small pot, heat the olive oil over low heat. Add the whole crushed garlic cloves to the oil and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let the oil stand until cool.
• Remove the garlic from the cooled oil and discard. Combine the oil, paprika, piri-piri sauce, lemon juice, garlic powder and the salt and pepper. Pour over the chicken, turning to coat, then close bag and refrigerate overnight, turning several times. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour prior to cooking.

Pour the marinade over the chicken then add the water to the pan. Bake in the oven, basting regularly for approximately 120 - 180 minutes, or until a meat thermometer registers 180°F (add a bit more water if sauce gets dry). Add the potatoes to the roasting pan after the chicken has been in the oven for 1/2 an hour. Taste the potatoes for salt and adjust to suit your taste. I like my sauce nice and red, so will usually add extra paprika while it's cooking.
• Remove the chicken from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Strain the marinade from the pan and serve with the chicken.
• ***Alternatively, the chicken can be placed on a rotisserie rod with a drip pan placed below and slightly in front of the bird to catch any drippings and prevent flare-ups as the bird rotates. Add the remaining marinade and water to the drip pan. Grill the chicken on a medium-high setting, brushing often with the marinade. Barbeque for approximately 120 minutes, or until the meat thermometer registers 180°F I have also cut up the chicken prior to marinating it, then barbequed it low and slow on the grill -- delicious.***.
