GREEK-STYLE ROASTED CHICKEN LEGS, POTATOES AND CAPERS

Greek-Style Roasted Chicken Legs, Potatoes and Capers image

If you love Greek food as much as we do then you will love this dish --- you may omit the capers and use your choice of chicken pieces instead of all legs --- omit the chicken and reduce the chicken broth, and you have an outstanding roasted potato dish --- this also works very well using sweet potatoes in place of russets.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

3 -4 lbs chicken legs (can use less)
6 large russet potatoes, peeled and cut into about 3-inch cubes
2 tablespoons chopped minced fresh garlic (add the whole bulb if desired the more the better!)
1 large onion, sliced
2 -4 tablespoons capers, drained
3/4 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup olive oil
2/3 cup lemon juice (can use bottled, I prefer freshly-squeezed)
1 -2 tablespoon dried oregano (or to taste)
1 teaspoon dried rosemary (or to taste)
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Set oven to 375 degrees F.
Grease a large roasting pan (large enough to hold the chicken).
Rub the chopped garlic into the chicken and season with salt and pepper.
Place the chicken into the pan along with the potatoes, onions and capers.
Pour the broth over.
In a small bowl whisk together oil, lemon juice, oregano and rosemary.
Pour evenly over the chicken and potatoes.
Bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes (could take more or less time depending on the size of chicken pieces) basting occasionally with juices.
*NOTE* if you find that either one is cooked before the other (either the chicken or potatoes) then remove to a dish and continue to cook.

Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make all the difference in this dish. Look for juicy, plump chicken breasts, sweet and tangy capers, plump and juicy raisins, and creamy, salty feta cheese.
Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the chicken, make sure to give each piece enough space so that it can brown evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will steam instead of sear.
Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Add the capers, raisins, and feta cheese at the end: This will help to prevent them from overcooking and losing their flavor.
Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: This dish pairs well with rice, potatoes, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Greek chicken with capers, raisins, and feta is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of savory chicken, sweet and tangy capers, plump and juicy raisins, and creamy, salty feta cheese is sure to please everyone at the table.
