Lemon Chicken and Potatoes

Lemon Chicken and Potatoes

Lemon Chicken and Potatoes is a one pan complete dinner recipe that really brings the flavor.

Very simple ingredients that were just kind of made to go together I suppose.

The best part is drizzling the sauce at the bottom of the pan over top of the chicken and potatoes when serving it.

My son requested I made this three times a week, if that gives you any sort of clue how good it really is 🙂

How to Make Lemon Chicken and Potatoes

You’ll need a pretty large casserole dish or baking sheet.

Just place 10 pieces of bone in, skin on chicken around the pan.

I went with half chicken thighs and half whole chicken wings.

Then dice a pound and a half of red skin potatoes and fill in the empty spaces between the chicken.

before cooking

A good drizzle of olive oil over the chicken and potatoes.

Then season with kosher salt, pepper, crushed red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and dried oregano.

adding oregano

I did not include measurements in the recipe for seasoning, just season to you taste.

I went kind of heavy on the oregano…SO good!

Also with the red pepper flakes because everyone in my family loves spice.

Next slice a whole lemon and squeeze most of the wedges over the chicken.

I put the wedges right in the pan once I squeezed them

Save a few wedges to squeeze over top when serving.

This will bake in a 425 degree oven for 35 to 45 minutes.

I recommend using an instant read thermometer to make sure the chicken is above 165 degrees.

A little more lemon over top and Lemon Chicken and Potatoes is ready to serve 🙂
