How To Make sheet pan greek chicken & potatoes

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 475 F. Place rack in center position.
  • Step 2
    In a large bowl, combine the oregano, pepper flakes, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Use 2 teaspoons of the mix to sprinkle evenly over both sides of the chicken pieces.
  • Step 3
    Add the oil, potatoes, lemon halves and garlic to the bowl with the remaining seasoning mix. Toss to combine thoroughly.
  • Step 4
    Place the garlic in the center of a rimmed sheet pan. Arrange the chicken thighs, skin side up, around the garlic. Place the lemons, cut sides up, and the potato wedges around the chicken.
  • Step 5
    Roast the chicken until the thighs reach 175 F, or about 30 minutes. When chicken is cooked through, transfer the chicken and lemons to a platter.
  • Step 6
    Add the olives, capers, and 2 tablespoons of the dill to the sheet pan, then stir and toss with the potatoes, scraping up any browned bits. Transfer the mixture to the platter and sprinkle with the remaining dill. Serve.
