Chicken with paprika

Ruddy crispy crust, tender and juicy meat. I don't usually bake the whole chicken. My family is small, so buying a 2 kg carcass is impractical. But I liked this recipe so much that I sometimes cook the whole chicken for it. By the way, if desired, the chicken can be cut into pieces or bake only half. However, in this case there will not be such a delicious crispy crust.
