Chicken Thighs With Saffron, Lemon and Red Potatoes

"Crisp chicken thighs are braised in a lemony, saffron-packed broth that gets soaked up into red potatoes in the oven. [Photographs: Yasmin Fahr] This one-skillet chicken dish starts with thighs that are seared in the pan for super crispy skin and then get finished in the oven with a flavorful cooking liquid seasoned with saffron and lemon. Red potatoes are cooked alongside the chicken so that they soak up the lemon-saffron juice and soften. Why this recipe works: * Searing the chicken first ensures extra crisp skin and more flavor in the braising liquid. * Saffron gives the dish depth of flavor and a gorgeous yellow-gold color. * Braising the chicken keeps the skin crisp and the meat extra tender while giving the potatoes ample time to soak up flavorful juices...."
