Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven & Prep the Potatoes
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
On a large baking sheet, toss the potato pieces with olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Spread them out in a single layer.
2. Prepare the Chicken
In a bowl, toss the chicken breasts or thighs with olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.
3. Roast the Potatoes
Roast the potatoes for 15 minutes.
4. Add the Chicken
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and arrange the seasoned chicken among the partially cooked potatoes.
5. Prepare the Garlic Butter Sauce
While the chicken and potatoes roast, whisk together the melted butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon zest, red pepper flakes (if using), and salt in a small bowl.
6. Finish Roasting
Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for another 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C) and the potatoes are tender and golden brown.
7. Drizzle with Garlic Butter
Remove the sheet pan from the oven and drizzle the garlic butter sauce evenly over the chicken and potatoes.
8. Rest and Serve
Let the chicken and potatoes rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley or dill, lemon wedges, and crumbled feta cheese, if desired.
