1 min read

This popular Greek one-pan meal makes the ideal midweek dinner. It can be prepared ahead of time to allow the marinade to flavour the chicken and potatoes, or it can be cooked straight away. Either way, it's delicious!

Ingredients:

8 chicken pieces, bone in, skin on

700g (1 1/2lb) potatoes, peeled and quartered

1/3 cup olive oil

1/3 cup lemon juice

2 tsp dried oregano or rosemary

1 tsp lemon zest

1 tsp each salt and pepper

1 tbsp crushed garlic

Method:

Preheat the oven to 180°C and grease a large roasting pan.
Place the oil, lemon juice, garlic, herbs, zest, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Mix to combine.
Add the chicken and potatoes and toss to coat.
Place the mixture into the roasting pan in a single layer.
Pour over the remaining marinade.
Bake for 45 minutes or until cooked through and golden, basting with the marinade every 15 minutes.
Garnish with lemon wedges and fresh oregano if preferred.
