Greek Lemon Chicken With Roasted Garlic And Potatoes

1. 1

   Clean the chicken and potatoes, dry then place in large baking pan.

2. 2

   Cut tops of garlic (be careful) to expose cloves, and set face up in pan.

3. 3

   Next add olive oil, the juice of 2 lemons, then rub over everything.

4. 4

   Make sure there's a nice coating of oil on the bottom of pan, so the chicken doesn't stick.

5. 5

   Add oregano, salt and pepper. Coat everything in the pan.

6. 6

   Add the last two lemon halves in pan and let bake with the other ingredients.

7. 7

   Now, turn chicken pieces so the skin in facing down on the pan bottom.

8. 8

   Cook for about 90 minutes total:

9. 9

   After 30 minutes, carefully remove hot pan from oven and gently turn over the chicken pieces so the skin is facing UP. This way you'll get a nice, crispy and flavorful skin.

    At the same time, turn over the potatoes and then place back in oven for 60 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

    To serve: After the garlic heads have cooled, you can pop out each roasted clove with a knife and serve the sweet, mushy cloves on top of the chicken. Or, do what I did and serve the entire half of the clove itself. They're delicious smashed into the potatoes or added to warm, crusty bread as well. The extra lemon halves (now soft and baked) can be eaten too. Enjoy.
