The Method

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

In a large bowl, combine potatoes, minced garlic, lemon juice, oregano, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat well.

Arrange the potatoes in a single layer in a baking dish.

Place the chicken thighs on top of the potatoes. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.

Add the chicken broth to the bottom of the baking dish.

Arrange the lemon slices over the chicken and potatoes.

Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C) and the potatoes are tender. The chicken skin should be crispy and golden brown.

Let rest for 10 minutes before serving. Spoon pan juices over chicken and potatoes before serving.

Chef's Tips

For extra crispy chicken skin, broil for the last few minutes of cooking, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.

Serve with a Greek salad or tzatziki sauce for a complete meal.

You can substitute chicken breasts for thighs, but they may require a shorter cooking time.

Add other vegetables like onions or bell peppers to the baking dish along with the potatoes.
