Ingredients

(Serves ~6)
For the Marinade

• ¾ cup olive oil
  
  

• ½ cup fresh lemon juice (juice of 2 lemons)
  
  

• 4–8 garlic cloves, minced
  
  

• 1 tbsp dried oregano
  
  

• 1 tsp dried thyme
  
  

• 2 tsp kosher salt (adjust to taste)
  
  

• 1 tsp black pepper
  
  

Other

• 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  
  

• ~5 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks or wedges
  
  

Optional Garnish

• Lemon slices or wedges
  
  

• Fresh oregano or parsley
  
  

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375–400 °F.
   
   

2. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper to form the marinade.
   
   
   

3. Place chicken and potatoes in a baking dish or roasting pan. Pour the marinade over them, tossing gently to coat evenly.
   
   
   

4. Spread the ingredients in a single layer, chicken skin‑side up. Add optional lemon slices if desired.
   
   

5. Bake for approximately 45 minutes; then uncover and roast another 15–25 minutes, until chicken is golden and reaches 165 °F internally, and potatoes are tender. Broil briefly if you’d like extra crispness.
   
   
   

6. Let the dish rest 5–10 minutes to redistribute juices. Garnish with fresh herbs and lemon before serving.
   
   
   

7. Pro tip: Spoon the flavorful pan juices over the chicken and potatoes when serving—they’re the best part!
