Curry-flavored Baked Chicken

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Pat the jointed chicken pieces dry with paper towels and arrange them in a single layer in a large baking dish.

In a small bowl, whisk together the curry powder, paprika, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Brush the melted butter generously over all surfaces of the chicken pieces, ensuring even coating.

Sprinkle the curry spice mixture evenly over the buttered chicken, rubbing gently into the skin and crevices to distribute flavors.

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place in the preheated oven.

Remove the foil and continue baking until the chicken is golden brown and the juices run clear when the thickest part of the thigh is pierced with a knife.

Transfer the baked chicken to a serving platter and drizzle with any pan juices remaining in the baking dish before serving.
