Description

A cozy dish of citrusy oven-roasted chicken thighs and crispy potatoes, flavored with garlic and oregano, perfect for sharing.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken thighs
  • 4 medium potatoes, quartered
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Juice of 2 lemons
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add the chicken thighs and potatoes to the bowl, tossing to coat them evenly with the marinade.
  4. Place the chicken and potatoes in a baking dish, arranging the potatoes around the chicken.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For extra-crisp potatoes, place them cut-side down and ensure they have enough space in the baking dish. Pat the chicken skin dry before marinating for better crisping.
