Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 325F. Rinse and dry your chicken thighs. Season both sides of your chicken thighs (legs) with rub and place in a large baking pan.
- 2. Scrub your potatoes and quarter. Place in a medium bowl. Add the rest of your rub and 1/2 your lemon juice. Mix your potatoes thoroughly and place potatoes in between chicken thighs. Fill your pan. Pour rest of juice all over your chicken and potatoes. Drizzle with olive oil.
- 3. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 1 hour. Drain excess juices out of baking pan, (chicken should have released some juices, you want to discard the excess juices otherwise your chicken and potatoes will not crisp), do leave a little bit of juice though at the bottom. Bake for another half hour. Last half an hour of baking, increase baking temp. to 375. Uncover foil from pan and let potatoes and chicken get nicely roasted. Remove from oven, let sit for 5-7 minutes or so. Plate your chicken and potatoes onto a plate and taking some of the leftover sauce from the baking pan, drizzle it over your chicken and potatoes. Serve with a nice salad and some rolls (crusty rolls are even better) for dipping into the sauce!!
