Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200ºC/390ºF.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towel then season generously with salt on both sides.
- Place the thighs, skin-side down in a deep pan/skillet (I use a sauté pan). Place the pan over medium-high heat and allow the thighs to cook, rendering their fat, until the skin is deep golden and crisp.
- While the chicken is cooking, parboil the halved potatoes until just tender. Drain and set aside.
- Once the chicken is crisp, turn over and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side.
- Remove from the pan and set aside. Add the butter, garlic, lemon zest and thyme to the pan. Allow to cook for a few seconds then add the drained potatoes.
- Stir to coat the potatoes in the butter then pour in the wine or stock. Allow to come to a simmer then add the thighs back on top of the potatoes.
- Drizzle with lemon juice and season with pepper.
- Place the pan in the oven and allow to bake for 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. Remove then serve sprinkled with thyme and lemon slices.
