Garlic Lemon Chicken Thighs with Potatoes
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 3 lemon, juiced
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 1/2 pounds chicken thighs
  • 5 potatoes, peeled and cut into wedges
  • lemon zest for garnish
Instructions
1
Combine the oil extracted from olives, juice of a fresh lemon, minced garlic cloves, dried oregano leaves, salt crystals, and ground black pepper in a container; pour the mixture over chicken breast pieces in another vessel. Cover it and allow to sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to overnight hours.
2
Heat the oven to a temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Take the chicken out of its marinade and place it in a roasting dish. Add diced potatoes.
3
Bake the chicken and potatoes in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Turn the chicken over and brush it with its marinade. Bake until the chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices flow freely, about 35 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted close to the bone should read 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius). Transfer the chicken and potatoes to a serving platter and sprinkle with grated lemon peel.
