Share:
Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken cut into 8 pieces (or a 3-4 pound fryer pack)
- 3 pounds mini new potatoes halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons oregano
- 1 ½ tablespoons salt
- 1 ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 10-15 cloves garlic
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 1 cup chicken stock
- ¼ - ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
- ¾ cup frozen peas
- ¼ cup chopped parsley
- 1 lemon cut into wedges (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degreeas F. Set an XL cast iron sauté pan (or another deep 14 inch oven-safe pan) over medium heat. Set the frozen peas out at room temperature to soften.
- In a small bowl, mix the oregano, salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Sprinkle the seasoning blend over the chicken pieces and potatoes.
- Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Once the oil is hot, place chicken pieces in the skillet, skin-side-down. Brown the chicken skin for 4-5 minutes, then flip and cook another 4-5 minutes. Move the chicken pieces to a holding plate.
- Wipe the skillet out with a paper towel (if needed) and add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Place half the potatoes in the skillet, cut-side-down. Sauté until golden then move to the holding plate. Add the remaining potatoes, cut side down, and sauté until golden.
- Now add all the potatoes back to the skillet. Add in the garlic cloves and crushed red pepper, mix well. Place the chicken pieces over the potatoes. Then pour in the wine and chicken stock.
- Place the skillet in the oven for 30 until, until the chicken is crispy on top and cooked through, and the potatoes are soft.
- Once the skillet comes out of the oven, sprinkle in the peas and parsley. (The peas will warm quickly.) Serve the baked chicken and potatoes with a good portion of wine sauce, and lemon wedges if desired.
Notes
- Optional Add-Ins: Capers or small hot Italian peppers can also be incorporated.
