Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Pat dry the chicken and sprinkle it all over with salt and pepper.
- Coat a large cast-iron skillet with 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat.
- Arrange the chicken thighs, skin side down, in the pan, and place over medium heat. Cook, without moving, until the skin is browned, 14–15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl toss potatoes, with pepperoncini, garlic, oregano, remaining oil, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- Flip chicken on the other side.
- Add the pepperoncini mixture to the pan, arranging it around the thighs. Pour the brine around the edges of the pan a good shake to evenly distribute.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until the potatoes are tender, 40–45 minutes.
- Remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the chicken and peperoncini to a plate.
- Place the skillet over high heat and cook potatoes, often stirring for about 4-5 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in red onion, sliced celery, and parsley.
- Arrange chicken and pepperoncini on top of the vegetables, garnish with celery leaves and serve.
