Ingredients

For The Chicken

1 1/2 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs about 6 chicken thighs
3 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp garlic powder

For The Potatoes

2 lbs little potatoes, halved about 6 cups
1 1/2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp onion powder
salt & pepper to taste

For Garnish

1 lemon
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 small bunch green onions thinly sliced

Instructions

To Prepare The Chicken

Add the chicken to a gallon size ziplocking bag, then add the rest of the chicken ingredients. Seal to close, while removing most of the excess air. Squish the bag to mix the marinade together and around the chicken.
Refrigerate the bag for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.

To Prepare The Potatoes

Add the prepared potatoes to a large mixing bow.
Add the oil and seasonings, and toss gently until the potatoes are evenly coated.
Transfer the seasoned potatoes to a large rimmed baking sheet, and spread out into an even layer.

To Assemble On The Sheet Pan

Using tongs, remove the chicken thighs from the marinade bag one at a time. Nestle them down among the potatoes, but so that they're evenly spaced out on the baking sheet.
Bake at 425° for 20-25 minutes. If you want your chicken & potatoes on the crispier side, you can broil them for a minute or two- but watch carefully to prevent burning.
Squeeze the fresh lemon evenly out over the sheet pan, followed by the feta cheese & thinly sliced green onions. Season with salt & pepper, if desired.
Plate & enjoy!

Notes

If you want your chicken and potatoes on the crispier side, you can broil them for a minute or two. Just watch them carefully so they don't burn.
Pair the dish with a simple green veggie like green beans or broccoli for a full meal or toss some cherry tomatoes onto the pan with the potatoes and chicken.
We also serve it with fresh tzatziki sauce and plenty of crusty bread
Want to prep this ahead? The chicken can be marinated up to 24 hours if trying to make ahead of time. Longer marinating will also give you a deeper flavor.
