Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 pounds skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 pinch cayenne pepper
½ cup fresh lemon juice
½ cup olive oil
6 cloves garlic, minced
3 russet potatoes, peeled and quartered
⅔ cup chicken broth, plus splash to deglaze pan

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly oil a large roasting pan.
  • Place chicken pieces in large bowl. Season with salt, oregano, pepper, rosemary, and cayenne pepper. Add fresh lemon juice, olive oil, and garlic. Place potatoes in bowl with the chicken; stir together until chicken and potatoes are evenly coated with marinade.

Toss chicken and potatoes, keeping chicken skin side up; continue baking until chicken is browned and cooked through, about 25 minutes more.

GREEK-STYLE ROASTED CHICKEN LEGS, POTATOES AND CAPERS



Greek-Style Roasted Chicken Legs, Potatoes and Capers image

If you love Greek food as much as we do then you will love this dish --- you may omit the capers and use your choice of chicken pieces instead of all legs --- omit the chicken and reduce the chicken broth, and you have an outstanding roasted potato dish --- this also works very well using sweet potatoes in place of russets.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 -4 lbs chicken legs (can use less)
6 large russet potatoes, peeled and cut into about 3-inch cubes

2 -4 tablespoons capers, drained
3/4 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup olive oil
2/3 cup lemon juice (can use bottled, I prefer freshly-squeezed)
1 -2 tablespoon dried oregano (or to taste)
1 teaspoon dried rosemary (or to taste)
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Set oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Grease a large roasting pan (large enough to hold the chicken).
  • Rub the chopped garlic into the chicken and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place the chicken into the pan along with the potatoes, onions and capers.
  • Pour the broth over.

  • Bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes (could take more or less time depending on the size of chicken pieces) basting occasionally with juices.
  • *NOTE* if you find that either one is cooked before the other (either the chicken or potatoes) then remove to a dish and continue to cook.

This is a deceptive recipe: quick and easy to make with a simple ingredient list but which really delivers the flavor. What more could you want from chicken and potatoes?
