GREEK LEMON CHICKEN AND POTATOES

Greek Lemon Chicken and Potatoes image

I don't have the energy or courage to cater for a living but, if I did, this Greek lemon chicken and potatoes would be one of my go-to entrees, and not just for big, fat weddings. It's a proven crowd-pleaser, simple to make, and easy on the wallet.

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

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
chopped fresh oregano for garnish

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.
Transfer chicken pieces, skin side up, to prepared roasting pan, reserving marinade. Distribute potato pieces among chicken thighs. Drizzle with 2/3 cup chicken broth. Spoon remainder of marinade over chicken and potatoes.
Place in preheated oven. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Toss chicken and potatoes, keeping chicken skin side up; continue baking until chicken is browned and cooked through, about 25 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to serving platter and keep warm.
Set oven to broil or highest heat setting. Toss potatoes once again in pan juices. Place pan under broiler and broil until potatoes are caramelized, about 3 minutes. Transfer potatoes to serving platter with chicken.
Place roasting pan on stove over medium heat. Add a splash of broth and stir up browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Strain; spoon juices over chicken and potatoes. Top with chopped oregano.

In a glass container big enough to hold all of the chicken pieces, whisk together the lemon juice, avocado oil, lemon zest, rosemary, garlic, and 1 teaspoon sea salt.
Add the chicken pieces to the marinate, turning to coat each one. Cover and refrigerate for at least 45 minutes and up to overnight. Turn chicken pieces once or twice during this time to be sure all pieces are equally coated with marinate.
Preheat grill to high with grill closed. If desired, sprinkle chicken pieces lightly with sea salt. Place chicken pieces on the grill with skin side down. Close grill and turn heat to low.
Grill chicken skin-side down until brown on the skin browns, about 5-7 minutes. Turn chicken so the skin is up, close grill and continue to cook over low heat until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes, but the time can vary wildly depending on the grill and thickness of the chicken pieces.
