Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a bowl, toss potato pieces with olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Spread potatoes in a single layer on a baking dish.
2. Prepare the Chicken

3. Bake the Chicken and Potatoes
Arrange the seasoned chicken among the potatoes in the baking dish.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C) and the potatoes are tender and golden brown. The cooking time may vary depending on the size of the chicken pieces and potatoes.
4. Rest and Serve
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh parsley or dill, lemon wedges, and crumbled feta cheese, if desired.
