Photo: Italian Marinated Chicken with Red Potatoes Recipe
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon chile flakes
- 1/8 teaspoon dried oregano
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 3 1/2 pounds chicken thighs and drumsticks
- 6 small red potatoes, quartered (about 1 1/2 pounds)
- 3 carrots, peeled, cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1 onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
Directions
To make the marinade, mix the lemon juice, oil, vinegar, chile flakes, oregano, garlic and sprinkle with salt and pepper in a small bowl. In a plastic bag or airtight container, add the chicken pieces, potatoes, carrots and onions. Add the marinade to bag, toss well to coat evenly, and refrigerate 1 to 10 hours.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Place the potatoes, carrots and onions in a single layer in a large glass baking dish. Transfer the chicken and place on top of the vegetables. Drizzle all the marinade from the bag over the chicken. Roast the chicken until it's cooked through, or an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees F, about 40 minutes. Cover the chicken and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Not to bad I only marinated it for an hour I think it could have been longer. I also did not have any red wine vinegar so I used apple cider vinegar. It turned out good still but it did take longer to cook and the veggies where still a little hard. My husband I and I both liked it though and very easy to make.

Great recipe, thank you Melissa. Doubled the delish marinade and cubed 4 breasts. I didn't put the chicken on top - just dumped from the plastic bag to the casserole dish. On first taste I found it a bit bland so added chopped fresh tarragon. I'll also add more salt and pepper to the marinade next time. One tip I always do in a dish like this, micro the vegies at least 3 minutes to head-start their future cooking time. My husband (the finicky eater fell in love with this one and wants to learn to make it himself - go figure!
