Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine oil, sweet paprika, tomato paste, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, cumin, lemon zest, and garlic.
• Place chicken on a quarter-size rimmed sheet pan (or use a regular rimmed sheet pan) and rub the chicken all over with the paprika mixture. Cover and let rest at least 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 24 hours in the refrigerator.
• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Toss potatoes, turnips, duck fat, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together on a quarter-size rimmed sheet pan or a 9-by-13-inch pan.
• Slide both baking pans into the oven. Roast chicken until cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Roast vegetables, tossing after 15 minutes. When you remove the chicken from oven, turn up heat to 500 degrees and continue cooking the vegetables until they are golden brown, another 5 to 10 minutes longer. (Tent chicken with foil and let rest while vegetables finish cooking.)
• Place the chilled cucumber in a bowl and sprinkle with salt and herbs. Serve with chicken and vegetables, garnished with herbs. Pass the cucumbers and sour cream (if using) at the table.

• To make filling: Mix together potatoes, cheese, salt, pepper and onion salt. Fill each with 1 to 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture, fold over and seal edges. To cook, bring a large pot of water to boil, carefully dropping in one at a time; stir once. They are done when they float to the top.

PAPRIKA CHICKEN STEW WITH POTATO PIEROGIES

Steps:

• Place a large pot of water over high heat and bring up to a boil for the pierogies.
• Meanwhile, place a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat with 2 teaspoons of the olive oil. Add the bacon and cook until just brown and crisp, 3-4 minutes. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, add to the skillet with the bacon, and brown all sides, 7-8 minutes. Add the onions, carrots, garlic, paprika, cumin, marjoram or oregano, and bay leaf and cook for 5-6 minutes, until the veggies are just tender.
• Make a well in the middle of the pan and add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add the flour to the olive oil and mix to form a paste. Add the wine (or 1/2 cup chicken broth), scraping up all of the brown bits on the bottom of the pan. Add 2 cups chicken stock and the tomatoes and cook for about 20 minutes, until the stew has thickened. Stir in the sour cream and remove from the heat.
• While the stew is cooking, cook the pierogies in boiling water according to the package directions. Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat, add the butter and cook until the butter turns slightly brown and gives off a nutty aroma. Drain the cooked pierogies, add them to the pan, and cook until slightly browned on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Add the chives and turn the pierogies to coat.
• Serve the stew in large bowls, sprinkled with lemon zest and parsley. Arrange 2-3 pierogies on top of each bowl of stew.

LEMONY CHICKEN WITH POTATOES AND OREGANO

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees and, if you like, line a sheet pan with parchment paper (not essential but helpful for cleaning up).
• Trim the ends off 1 lemon, then cut the lemon in half crosswise.Thinly slice one half of the lemon into rounds, then cut the rounds into quarters, creating small triangles. Shake out the seeds then place the lemon quarters into a large bowl. Save the remaining lemon half for serving. Cut the remaining whole lemon into wedges, for serving.
• Add chicken and potatoes to the large bowl with the lemon quarters. Add the oregano, salt and pepper; toss well. (Your hands are the best tools here.) Drizzle in the oil and toss again.
• Arrange chicken thighs skin side up on one half of the prepared sheet pan, and potatoes and lemons on the other, spreading the potatoes out into one layer. Roast for 20 minutes. Using a long-handled spoon, stir the potatoes, then spread them out again in one layer. (You don't have to touch the chicken.) Continue roasting until chicken and potatoes are cooked through and everything is golden and crisped, another 15 to 20 minutes (40 to 45 minutes total roasting time).
• To serve, squeeze the juice from the lemon half all over chicken and potatoes and give everything a good stir to incorporate all the tasty juices and browned bits at the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle with more oregano and salt, and serve with additional lemon wedges and condiments on the side.
