A delightful and easy-to-make dish featuring roasted chicken and potatoes infused with lemon and herbs.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
A preheated oven ensures even cooking and a crispy finish.
Juice one lemon and slice the other into thin rounds.
Rolling the lemon on the counter before juicing helps extract more juice.
Place the chicken breasts and potato wedges in a baking dish.
Cut the potatoes into similar-sized wedges for even cooking.
Drizzle olive oil over the chicken and potatoes, then sprinkle with oregano, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Use your hands to toss for better coverage of the seasoning.
Arrange the lemon slices over the chicken and potatoes.
The lemon slices will infuse the dish with a fresh aroma during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, basting occasionally with the juices from the pan, until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
Basting helps keep the chicken moist and enhances the flavor.
Serve the chicken and potatoes on a platter, garnished with the roasted lemon slices.
Serve with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
