Garlic Lemon Italian Chicken
Ingredients
  • 15 chicken thighs
  • 8 large potatoes, peeled and quartered
  • 1 cup vegetable oil, or as needed
  • 1/2 cup wine vinegar
  • 5 lemons, juiced
  • 10 cloves crushed garlic
  • 2 tablespoons dried oregano
  • 2 tablespoons dried parsley
  • 1 onion, minced
  • salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or 175 degrees Celsius, for optimal cooking results.
2
Place the chicken pieces in a suitable-sized roasting pan with dimensions of 10 inches by 15 inches, to accommodate the dish's requirements.
3
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the potatoes in 1/2-inch-deep oil until they achieve a golden brown color. Subsequently, transfer the potatoes to the roasting pan with the chicken.
4
Mix together the vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, parsley, onion, salt and pepper in a bowl. Combine this mixture with the 1/2 cup of reserved frying oil, which was previously set aside.
5
Pour this blended mixture over the chicken and potatoes in the roasting pan, ensuring they are well-coated.
6
Place the prepared dish in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, periodically basting the chicken and potatoes with the sauce mixture to maintain their moisture levels.
7
After completion of the baking process, allow the dish to rest for 5 minutes before serving it hot and garnished.
