Greek Lemon Chicken and Potatoes recipe—tender chicken and crispy potatoes in a zesty, flavorful lemon-garlic sauce! 🍗🍋🥔
Ingredients:
4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or breasts
4 medium potatoes, cut into wedges
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
1 tbsp lemon zest
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 cup chicken broth
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the chicken and potatoes:
Arrange the chicken thighs (or breasts) and potato wedges on a large baking sheet.
Make the marinade:
In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Marinate:
Pour half of the marinade over the chicken and potatoes, tossing them to coat. Let it marinate for about 15-20 minutes (optional, but adds extra flavor).
Bake:
Pour the chicken broth over the chicken and potatoes.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown, and the potatoes are tender and crispy.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with extra lemon wedges on the side!
