Ingredients

Step cooking

1. Cooking 5 pcs. chicken legs in any convenient way. Do not forget to cut off the excess fat and cut the ham into 2 small pieces. It will be easier to do if you cut along the joint. We wash the chicken well under running water and wipe it with paper towels, this will help us get rid of excess moisture.
   
2. Next, we peel 1 head of garlic, which is about 7-8 cloves. We cut all the cloves into several longitudinal slices.
   
3. On the skin of the ham we make small longitudinal cuts 1 cm long, our pre-chopped garlic goes there too. One slice of chicken should fit three slices of garlic on one side and three slices on the other.
   
4. Sprinkle the chicken well with salt and black pepper and leave it alone for 10-15 minutes.
   
5. I wash 10 potatoes under running water and peel them. We cut potatoes in large pieces, you can slices or slices.
   
6. In a separate container, mix the sauce for potatoes and chicken. To do this, you need to take 350 g of mayonnaise, salt and spicy spices to taste. Turmeric, ginger, coriander, thyme, bay leaf, basil, dill are perfect. We also grind 1 clove of garlic using a press and send to other ingredients. We mix everything well. The sauce is ready.
   
7. We divide the whole sauce into 2 parts. One part is poured into chicken legs, which we pickled in advance with garlic and salt, and the other part is poured into potatoes. Mix the potatoes with the sauce and set aside for a while. The chicken also needs to be thoroughly mixed, but do not forget that the chicken already has garlic, so you should be extremely careful.
   
8. Put the potatoes on the heat-resistant baking sheet with the first layer and smooth it with a spoon. You do not need to lubricate the baking sheet with oil, because the recipe contains mayonnaise, which contains non-stick properties. The second layer will go chicken legs. You can grate hard cheese with a third layer to make a crust; you can also add mushrooms, tomatoes, bell peppers and pineapple slices to this recipe.
   
9. The oven must be preheated to 200 degrees and baked chicken for 50-60 minutes. Serve the dish in portions and can be decorated with fresh herbs.
