Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 4 chicken about 6 oz each, or 2 large chicken breasts, cut in half to make 4
  • 1 lb potatoes fingerling, washed thoroughly and sliced in half (slice into quarters if needed to keep a somewhat even size for all)
  • 10 cloves garlic
  • 1 lemon sliced into rounds
  • ¼ cup lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp greek oregano
  • 1 tbsp dried basil
  • 1 tbsp dried thyme
  • 1 tbsp fresh cracked pepper
  • 2 tbsp salt celtic sea

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • In a glass baking dish, drizzle olive oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the dish.
  • Add chicken breasts and potatoes to dish and sprinkle lemon juice, herbs, salt, and pepper over.
  • Stir to mix.
  • Add garlic and lemon to dish, placing over chicken and potatoes.
  • Cover with aluminum foil.
  • Bake, covered, for 20 minutes, until chicken is white and firm.
  • Remove foil.
  • Flip chicken to other side and stir potatoes, and cook until lightly browned and 165 degrees internal temperature, flipping every 5 minutes - which will be about 10-15 minutes total.
  • If chicken is 155-160 degrees internal temoerature, and you'd like a little darker color on the dish, turn the broiler to high and finish cooking under broiler to get a lovely browned, crispy finish to the chicken.
  • Serve immediately over rice, pasta, or vegetables - leftovers are fabulous over salads or in wraps and sandwiches!
