    👨‍🍳 Method
    1. Marinate the Chicken
    Coat the chicken generously with BlixSam Santorini Injection Marinade. Leave to marinate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for maximum flavour.
    2. Build the Flavour Base
    Place the butter, onion and red pepper into an oven-safe dish that fits your air fryer.
    Sprinkle over:
    2 tsp BlixSam Flattie Premium Spice
    2 tsp BlixSam Steakhouse Premium Spice
    Air fry at 180°C for 8–10 minutes, stirring once, until the onions have softened.
    3. Add the Potatoes
    Add the halved baby potatoes and toss well so they're coated in the seasoned butter.
    Arrange the marinated chicken on top and pour over any remaining BlixSam Santorini Injection Marinade.
    4. Air Fry
    Cover the dish tightly with foil.
    Cook at 180°C for 35–40 minutes.
    Remove the foil, then continue cooking at 200°C for 8–10 minutes, or until the chicken skin is beautifully browned and crispy and the potatoes are golden.
    5. Serve
    Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve straight from the dish with a crisp green salad or warm crusty bread.

    🔥 BlixSam Tip
    Cooking the dish covered for most of the time keeps the chicken exceptionally juicy while allowing the potatoes to absorb the Santorini flavours. Removing the foil for the final few minutes creates perfectly crisp, golden skin.
