Greek Lemon Chicken and Potatoes

This Greek chicken and potatoes is a one pan meal with marinated garlic and herb chicken and tender potatoes, all roasted to golden brown perfection. A super easy dinner for a busy weeknight.

This lemon chicken is the best dinner with juicy, tender, and golden chicken thighs coated in a delicious lemon-herb Greek marinade. Watch how I make it and serve it up in the video below!

For the dreamiest roasted potatoes — with creamy insides and very crispy outsides — follow this classic Greek method of roasting peeled potatoes in equal parts olive oil, lemon juice and chicken stock. The potatoes soak up the flavorful liquid, allowing the insides to remain tender while the outsides crisp in the oven’s high heat. You can follow the same method for russet potatoes, though the final result will be less moist.

These Greek lemon potatoes, with olive oil, lemon juice, and broth, are roasted until crisp and golden outside, tender and soft inside.

Recipe video above. The best chicken and rice recipe in the world!! This is not an authentic Greek dish (as far as I know!) but it is made using classic Greek ingredients. The beauty of this is that it is all made in one pot / pan. Cooking the rice with the chicken on top adds extra flavour to the rice because the chicken juices get soaked up by the rice. MARINATING TIME: 20 minutes to overnight. {Recipe video above} SCALE RECIPE using servings slider - hover mouse over Servings.

One of my absolute favorite things to cook in the crockpot is chicken breasts and baby potatoes. My go-to recipe for my crockpot chicken breast and potatoes includes the most incredibly delicious marinade you will ever have! It's a combination of the marinade I use for two different recipes and if you've ever had these two recipes: roasted chicken legs and potatoes and lemony chicken and potatoes, then you already know that you are in for a treat! No need for cream cheese or a can of condensed soup in this crockpot chicken recipe because the marinade and flavor combination I use for my family is fresh, savory, and delicious enough without any processed food. It's healthy, it's nutritious, and let me tell you a little secret…this is the crock pot recipe that my kids are always excited to eat! In fact it's hardly like a crockpot recipe at all, it's got a little greek flare, sprinkled in with a little italian vibe, and boom…the BEST crockpot chicken and potatoes recipe you will ever have! Are you ready? Let’s make it!
