HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

02

In a large bowl, combine the chicken thighs and baby potatoes.

03

Add the minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, black pepper, olive oil, and the juice and zest of the lemon to the bowl. Toss everything together until the chicken and potatoes are evenly coated.

04

Spread the chicken and potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. This helps them roast evenly and get nicely browned.

05

Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C) and the potatoes are tender and lightly golden. Flip the chicken and potatoes halfway through cooking for even browning.

06

Serve immediately, perhaps with a fresh green salad on the side.

Chef's Tips

For extra flavor, you can add a sprinkle of fresh parsley or dill before serving. Ensure your baking sheet is large enough to spread the ingredients in a single layer; if not, use two sheets.

Easy Substitutions

Chicken breasts can be used instead of thighs, but reduce cooking time slightly to prevent drying out. Sweet potatoes can replace baby potatoes for a different flavor profile. Feel free to experiment with other Mediterranean herbs like rosemary or marjoram.
