Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, combine 4 tbsp olive oil, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp lemon zest, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1.5 tsp salt, and 1 tsp black pepper. Stir to blend.
  2. Step 2: Add 6 bone-in chicken thighs and 1.5 pounds of 1.5-inch chunked yellow potatoes to the bowl. Toss thoroughly to coat evenly with the marinade.
  3. Step 3: Spread the chicken and potatoes evenly on a large rimmed sheet pan, skin side up. Roast in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes until the chicken skin is golden brown and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
  4. Step 4: Remove from oven and sprinkle 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley over the top before serving to add a fresh, bright finish.
