Description

A comforting dish of succulent chicken thighs and tender red-skinned potatoes smothered in a rich garlic and herb-infused broth.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 1/2 pounds small red-skinned potatoes, halved
  • 4 large garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 8 ounces frozen artichoke hearts (or 1 cup thawed lima beans)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
  2. In a large ovenproof pot, heat olive oil over high heat until shimmering.
  3. Season chicken with salt and pepper, then brown for about 10 minutes, skin-side down.
  4. Set the chicken aside.
  5. In the same pot, cook halved potatoes until golden (about 10 minutes).
  6. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
  7. Pour in chicken broth and deglaze the pot.
  8. Stir in oregano and thyme, then return chicken to the pot and bring to a boil.
  9. Cover and bake for 20 minutes until chicken is cooked through.
  10. Remove chicken and potatoes.
  11. Add artichokes to the pot and simmer for 4 minutes.
  12. Reduce heat and stir in butter.
  13. Pour sauce over chicken and potatoes and serve warm.

Notes

For crispy chicken skin, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes after baking if needed. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
