Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 medium lemon, juiced and divided
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3/4 teaspoon dried oregano, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, divided
  • 2 pounds bone-in chicken (drumsticks, thighs, or leg quarters)
  • 4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 bunch broccolini, trimmed and halved
  • 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and minced garlic. Add the chicken and season with 1/2 teaspoon oregano, smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Toss to coat and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 425°F and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  3. Place potatoes and broccolini on the pan. Drizzle with remaining olive oil and season with remaining oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
  4. Add the marinated chicken to the pan, spreading everything in a single layer. Brush any remaining marinade over the chicken.
  5. Roast for 40 minutes, turning potatoes halfway through, until chicken is cooked through and potatoes are golden and crispy.
  6. Transfer to a serving platter. Drizzle with remaining lemon juice and top with crumbled feta and fresh dill before serving.

Notes

  • Do not overcrowd the pan to ensure proper roasting and browning.
  • Bone-in chicken gives the best flavor and stays juicy.
  • Swap broccolini with broccoli, green beans, or zucchini if needed.
  • Add olives or red onion for extra Mediterranean flavor.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat in the oven for best texture or microwave for convenience.
  • Add fresh lemon juice after reheating to refresh flavors.
