  • 2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into wedges

Instructions

  3. 3. Arrange in Baking Dish: After marinating, place chicken and potatoes in a large baking dish sprayed with nonstick spray.
  4. 4. Roast: Bake in preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and potatoes are golden brown.
  5. 5. Serve: Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Drizzle with leftover marinade from the dish for extra flavor.
