Ingredients
- 6 pieces Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 4 medium Yukon gold potatoes
- 2 large Lemons
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh oregano leaves
- 4 large Garlic cloves
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 0.5 cup Dry white wine (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Peel the garlic cloves and slice them thinly.
Step 3
Wash the potatoes thoroughly, leave the skins on, and cut them into 1-inch cubes.
Step 4
Slice one lemon thinly into rounds and juice the second lemon, reserving the juice.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken thighs, potato cubes, lemon slices, garlic slices, olive oil, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until evenly coated.
Step 6
Transfer the mixture to a large baking dish, arranging the chicken thighs skin-side up on top of the potatoes.
Step 7
Pour the chicken broth and white wine (if using) around the edges of the dish, avoiding pouring over the chicken skin to keep it crisp.
Step 8
Drizzle the reserved lemon juice evenly over the chicken and potatoes.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes, or until the chicken skin is golden brown, the meat reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C), and the potatoes are tender.
Step 10
If desired, broil the dish for an additional 2-3 minutes to further crisp the chicken skin.
Step 11
Remove from the oven and let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 12
Serve the baked chicken and potatoes hot, garnished with extra fresh oregano if desired.
