Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs about 4-6 thighs, pat dry
  • 1.5 lb baby potatoes halved
  • 3 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 1 large lemon thinly sliced, seeds removed
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 0.25 cup chicken broth optional, for deglazing
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Notes

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F to maintain crispiness. Variations: Add rosemary sprigs or whole garlic cloves to the skillet for extra flavor. If using large potatoes, cut them into quarters to ensure even cooking.
