Some nights you want a homemade dinner.
Some nights you also don’t want to destroy the kitchen making it.

That’s where this One-Pan Greek Chicken and Potatoes comes in. It’s lemony, buttery, packed with flavor, and somehow feels like a real dinner without turning into a whole event.

Tips for the Best Greek Chicken and Potatoes

Let the chicken get golden—that’s flavor, not a mistake

Don’t crowd the pan or things steam instead of roast

Baby potatoes work best here

Fresh lemon at the end matters more than you think

If you use chicken thighs with the skin on, bake at 400° for 35 minutes, then turn and cook the other side for 25 minutes.
