Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Potatoes
- 4 chicken thighs
- 4 medium potatoes, diced
Seasonings and Toppings
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the chicken and potatoes evenly.
- Prepare Seasoning Mix: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to create a flavorful marinade.
- Coat Chicken and Potatoes: Add the chicken thighs and diced potatoes into the bowl with the seasoning mixture and toss thoroughly to make sure everything is evenly coated with the oils and spices.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the coated chicken and potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet to ensure even roasting and crispy edges.
- Add Parmesan Cheese: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the chicken and potatoes for a cheesy crust once baked.
- Bake Dish: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through and the potatoes are tender and golden brown.
- Serve: Remove from the oven, serve hot, and enjoy your comforting meal packed with garlicky, cheesy goodness.
Notes
- Use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs for extra flavor and juiciness.
- For crispier potatoes, cut them into uniform pieces and avoid overcrowding the baking sheet.
- You can substitute Parmesan with Pecorino Romano or Asiago cheese for a different taste.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven for best results.
