One-skillet Greek Lemon Chicken And Potatoes
  1. Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat the oven to 400°F.

  2. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil.

  3. Quarter 1 ½ pounds small Yukon gold potatoes.

  4. Thinly slice half of 1 medium lemon and remove the seeds from the slices; reserve the remaining half.

  5. Thinly slice 3 garlic cloves.

  6. Pat 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season with ½ teaspoon of the kosher salt and ¼ teaspoon of the black pepper.

  7. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil into a 10-inch or larger oven-safe skillet.

  8. Add the chicken, skin-side down. Cook undisturbed over medium heat until the skin is well-browned and crisp, about 15 minutes.

  9. Meanwhile, add the potatoes to the boiling water and cook until fork tender, about 10 minutes, then drain.

  10. Transfer the chicken to a plate, skin-side up.

  11. Add the potatoes, garlic, 2 teaspoons dried oregano, remaining ½ teaspoon kosher salt, and remaining ¼ teaspoon black pepper to the skillet.

  12. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are lightly browned in spots, 3 to 5 minutes.

  13. Nestle the chicken on top of the potatoes and top with the lemon slices.

  14. Roast in the oven until the chicken is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.

  15. Squeeze the juice from the reserved lemon half over the chicken and potatoes.

  16. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
