Who this list is for
This Greek lemon chicken and potatoes list is for a pan-roasted main dish serving six. Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and Yukon Gold potatoes cook in a lemony oregano broth, with no skewers or pita required.
How to use this list
Check olive oil, low-sodium chicken broth, dried oregano, kosher salt, and black pepper. Buy eight bone-in skin-on chicken thighs, 2 1/2 pounds of Yukon Gold potatoes, three lemons, garlic, and fresh dill. Cut the potatoes into even pieces, prepare lemon and garlic, and arrange everything in a roasting pan. The chicken broth, lemon, olive oil, and oregano make the pan liquid.
Common mistakes
Do not buy boneless, skinless thighs by default; the list specifically calls for bone-in, skin-on thighs. Skip pita, skewers, and extra sauces, as this is already a complete chicken-and-potato meal. Use Yukon Gold potatoes rather than assuming any potato will give the same pan-roasted result.
What is on this list
The list includes 8 chicken thighs, 2 1/2 pounds of Yukon Gold potatoes, 3 lemons, 6 garlic cloves, and 1/3 cup of olive oil. You also need 1 cup of low-sodium chicken broth, dried oregano, fresh dill, kosher salt, and black pepper. Cross off the pantry staples you already have.
Before you go
Plan for six servings and choose a roasting pan large enough to spread the thighs and potatoes out. Buy dill near cooking day, and keep the chicken refrigerated until it goes into the pan.
