GREEK-STYLE ROASTED CHICKEN LEGS, POTATOES AND CAPERS
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.

GREEK STYLE ROASTED CHICKEN
This Delicious dish was a real winner. I came up with it by combining 2 chicken recipes that I had. Fancy without a great deal of work! You can reduce the fat content by not using the olive oil and herbs on the outside, then when serving don't eat the skin! Also, it is just as yummy if you omit the ham. Haven't tried it without the feta, but I imagine that would be good as well.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Cut the potatoes into 2-inch pieces and place them in a 9 by 13-inch baking pan (or thereabouts--something that is big enough for the chicken to rest on. Toss them with 2 teaspoons of the olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon thyme, and the oregano. Push the potatoes towards the edges, making a space in the center fort the chicken. Rinse the chicken and remove the livers. Pat the chicken dry and put it, breast side up, on the baking dish that's holding the potatoes. Using a paring knife, pierce it about three times in each half of the breast. Wedge a slice of garlic into each piercing. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and some freshly ground pepper. Flip the chicken. Repeat on the other side, piercing the thigh and leg meat, and wedging in slices of garlic. Sprinkle with the remaining salt. Drizzle about 1 tablespoon of olive oil on top of the chicken, plus the juice of half the lemon. Cut a piece of foil so that it fits around the chicken, and place it on top like a hat. Bake the chicken for about 45-55 minutes, basting occasionally with its juices, until the chicken is cooked through--you'll know it's cooked when the juices run clear. It may take longer than this, depending on the size of your chicken, but you'll just have to check. You'll also have to check on the potatoes--if they're not close to done, cook a bit longer before proceeding to the next step. Take the chicken out of the oven. Toss the potatoes and remove the foil hat. Turn the chicken over so it's breast-side up and squeeze the second half of the lemon over it. Drizzle on a little more olive oil. Raise the heat to 425°F and cook for about 10-15 more minutes, until the skin browns a bit and the potatoes are done. Remove and let rest about 5 minutes before carving up the chicken and plating each portion with a generous serving of potatoes.
