Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Place chicken in the center of a large rimmed baking sheet; season with curry powder, salt, and pepper. Scatter carrots around chicken. Roast, occasionally brushing chicken and tossing carrots with pan drippings, until chicken is cooked through, and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of thigh (avoiding bone) registers 165 degrees, 35 to 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan with a lid, bring 2 cups water to a boil; season with salt and pepper. Add rice; return to a boil. Stir, and reduce heat to low. Cover, and simmer 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat, and scatter lime zest over rice. Cover pan, and let steam 5 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer chicken to a plate. Sprinkle lime juice over carrots (still on hot baking sheet); toss, scraping up and incorporating any browned bits. Fluff rice gently with a fork; serve with chicken and carrots.

• Seal or cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
• Place the chicken in a shallow baking pan and spoon additional marinade on top of chicken.
• Cover with foil and bake at 400 degrees for 35 minutes.
• Uncover, spoon reserved marinade on chicken and continue baking uncovered for an additional 10 minutes.
• Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes.

CURRY KETCHUP CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Whisk together the ketchup, curry powder and vegetable oil in a large bowl. Add the chicken thighs and toss until they are completely coated in the ketchup mixture.
• Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking sheet and spoon over the remaining marinade to make sure that a thick even layer of the ketchup mixture remains on the skin. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Roast until the chicken registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer and the ketchup mixture begins to caramelize, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Serve the chicken over cooked white rice and garnish with the cilantro.
