Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/4 cup olive oil
2 Tbsp. lemon zest, about 3-4 lemons
3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp. Italian seasoning
1 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. dried thyme
1/2 tsp. paprika
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
2 1/2 lbs. bone-in-skin-on chicken thighs
1 1/2 lbs. russet potatoes, about 2 large, peeled, halved + cut into wedges
1 large onion, peeled and quartered
1 lemon, thinly sliced
Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Kosher salt and fresh black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 F. Line a rimmed baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Combine the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, Italian seasoning, onion powder, thyme, paprika, and red pepper flakes.
  • Add the chicken, potatoes, and onions to a large bowl. Pour the lemon spice mixture, season to taste with salt and pepper, and toss thoroughly to combine.
  • Arrange the chicken skin side up, potatoes, and onions on the prepared baking pan. I like to lightly season everything with salt and pepper once arranged on the pan to ensure it is seasoned well before going in the oven.
  • Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake, covered, for 40 minutes.
  • Uncover, toss the potatoes around and spoon some of pan juices over the chicken. Top with lemon slices, and continue baking, uncovered, for additional 25-30 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked and potatoes are tender.
  • Remove from the oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

LEMONY CHICKEN WITH POTATOES AND OREGANO



Lemony Chicken With Potatoes and Oregano image

This might be the easiest roast chicken and potatoes recipe out there. Roasting lemon slices with the potatoes infuses them with a bright, zippy flavor. Then, you can eat the roasted lemon or not - the caramelized, intense flavor is for true lemon lovers only. Serve this with one or two of your favorite condiments on the side for dipping the potatoes.

Time 50m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lemons
1 1/4 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (2 to 3), patted dry with paper towels (see Tip)
1 1/4 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed, halved and cut into 1/2-inch wedges
1 3/4 teaspoons dried oregano, plus more for serving
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal), plus more for serving
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup or hot sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees and, if you like, line a sheet pan with parchment paper (not essential but helpful for cleaning up).
  • Trim the ends off 1 lemon, then cut the lemon in half crosswise.Thinly slice one half of the lemon into rounds, then cut the rounds into quarters, creating small triangles. Shake out the seeds then place the lemon quarters into a large bowl. Save the remaining lemon half for serving. Cut the remaining whole lemon into wedges, for serving.
  • Add chicken and potatoes to the large bowl with the lemon quarters. Add the oregano, salt and pepper; toss well. (Your hands are the best tools here.) Drizzle in the oil and toss again.
  • Arrange chicken thighs skin side up on one half of the prepared sheet pan, and potatoes and lemons on the other, spreading the potatoes out into one layer. Roast for 20 minutes. Using a long-handled spoon, stir the potatoes, then spread them out again in one layer. (You don't have to touch the chicken.) Continue roasting until chicken and potatoes are cooked through and everything is golden and crisped, another 15 to 20 minutes (40 to 45 minutes total roasting time).
  • To serve, squeeze the juice from the lemon half all over chicken and potatoes and give everything a good stir to incorporate all the tasty juices and browned bits at the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle with more oregano and salt, and serve with additional lemon wedges and condiments on the side.

CHICKEN WITH RAISINS AND LEMON

Provided by Alain Cohen

Categories     Chicken     Potato     Poultry     Lemon     Raisin     Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 3 1/2-pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 large russet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 1/2 teaspoons ground turmeric
1 large lemon, peel and white pith cut away, very thinly sliced
1/2 cup raisins
3 1/2 cups (about) canned low-salt chicken broth
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Arrange chicken in single layer in large Dutch oven. Drizzle oil over. Tuck potatoes between chicken pieces. Sprinkle with garlic and turmeric. Season with salt and pepper. Lay lemon slices over. Sprinkle with raisins. Pour over enough broth barely to cover chicken. Bring to boil over high heat. Cover and boil 10 minutes. Uncover; reduce heat to medium and simmer until chicken is just cooked through and potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Transfer chicken and potatoes to platter. Tent with foil to keep warm. Add lemon juice to Dutch oven. Boil cooking liquid until thickened to light sauce consistency and reduced by half, about 7 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon over chicken and serve.

Tips:

  • Sear the chicken to perfection: For crispy and flavorful chicken, sear it in a hot skillet until golden brown on all sides before adding it to the pot.
  • Use fresh lemons: Freshly squeezed lemon juice and zest add a vibrant and tangy flavor to the dish. Avoid using bottled lemon juice or concentrate.
  • Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Red Bliss hold their shape well and are less likely to fall apart podczas gotowania.
  • Soak the raisins in hot water: Soaking the raisins in hot water helps plump them up and adds a chewy texture to the dish.
  • Season generously: Don't be afraid to season the dish with salt and pepper. The lemon and raisins add sweetness, so you need a good balance of flavors.
  • Serve immediately: Chicken with lemon, potatoes, and raisins is best served immediately, while the chicken is still crispy and the potatoes are tender.

Conclusion:

This one-pot chicken with lemon, potatoes, and raisins is an easy and flavorful weeknight meal. With its tender chicken, tangy lemon sauce, and chewy raisins, it's a dish that the whole family will love.
