Categories     Main

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 chicken (1.1kg), cut into 8 portions (40 ounces)
1 clove of garlic
juice of 3 medium lemons
1 tsp white wine vinegar
4-5 tbsps extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp peppercorns
1 tsp dry oregano
freshly ground salt and pepper
100g feta cheese, cut into small cubes (4 ounces)
1kg potatoes, cut into wedges (35 ounces)

Steps:

  • To prepare this Greek lemon chicken recipe, divide the chicken into 8 portions and wash thoroughly. Peel the garlic and rub on the chicken. Place on a large baking tray and season well with salt and pepper.
  • Cut the potatoes into wedges and place them between the chicken. Pour in some water, enough to cover half the chicken and add the lemon juice, the white wine vinegar, the olive oil, the chopped garlic and the peppercorns. Season with salt and pepper and add a good pinch of oregano. (Tip: sprinkle the potatoes with 1 tsp semolina for crispier results)
  • Cover with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven 180C / 350F for 60-75 minutes in total. 50 minutes into the bake remove the aluminum foil and top the chicken with some feta cheese. Bake for another 15-20 minutes (the remaining time), until your Greek lemon chicken is nicely coloured and crispy on the outside.
  • This Greek lemon chicken is ideally served with a refreshing Greek feta salad and lots of sourdough bread aside to dig into all the delicious sauce!!

  • Pat dry the whole chicken completely with a paper towel before adding seasoning. This helps create an extra crispy skin when roasting. In a small bowl, whisk together salt, pepper and thyme and generously rub all over the chicken, inside and out. Set aside for at least 30 minutes or refrigerate overnight.
  • Grate the lemon and transfer lemon zest into a small bowl. Then, squeeze out 2 tablespoons of lemon juice into the same bowl, and add olive oil, garlic and paprika, and whisk to combine. Stuff the leftover lemon into the cavity of the chicken. Generously brush half of the lemon mixture over the whole chicken.
  • In a large mixing bowl, toss to combine the remaining half of the lemon mixture with potatoes and carrots.
