Remove the skin of the chicken. Cut it into quarters, and score it with a knife to allow it to cook towards the inside.

In a nonstick oven-friendly pan (no plastic handle) add 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil and pan-sear the chicken for about two minutes on each side.
Place it in an oven at 180°C and roast for 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked.
Serve the chicken with the potato salad, and mixed lettuce. Enjoy!
