Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, toss 1.5 lbs yellow potatoes cut into 1-inch chunks with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
Step 2: Spread potatoes evenly in a large rimmed baking sheet. In the same bowl, combine 6 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs with 2 tbsp olive oil, 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice, 4 minced garlic cloves, 2 tsp dried oregano, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
Step 3: Arrange the chicken thighs skin-side up over the potatoes on the baking sheet. Scatter 1 lemon cut into wedges around the pan.
