directions

  • Set oven to 400 degrees.
  • Sprinkle the onion slices in the bottom of a large roasting pan.
  • Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper, then brown the chicken in a large skillet on both sides for about 6 minutes on each side; place on top of the onion slices along with potatoes in the roasting pan.
  • Pour the chicken stock or broth around the browned chicken pieces.
  • Then sprinkle oregano all over in the roasting pan.
  • In a bowl mix together olive oil, garlic lemon juice and thyme.
  • Pour over and around the chicken, mixing together slightly with a wooden spoon to combine with the broth.
  • Add in the small button mushrooms around the chicken.
  • Cover and bake in a 400 degree oven for about 30 minutes.
  • Uncover, mix juices slighty and baste the chicken with a wooden spoon, then return to oven (uncovered) and bake for about 20 minutes more or until the chicken is cooked through.
  • *NOTE* if you find that the potatoes are done before the chicken, just remove to a bowl.

  2. EASY!!! This time when I made it I didn't brown the chicken, just threw the chicken breasts in the 9X13 still frozen. Then because the chicken was frozen(with that water glaze still on it), I decreased the amount of water to 1/2 cup and still used 1 tsp chicken bouillon powder. It was WONDERFUL! We love you, Kittencal!
     
  3. This was yummy! I used 1/2 cup of EVO and the juice from one lemon. Next time I will use 1/4 cup EVO because it was a bit too oily for me. Next time I will also double the mushrooms. I used 8 ounces of baby bellas sliced. I also used bite sized gold potatoes quartered and they cooked perfectly with the chicken.
     
  4. Kittencal does it AGAIN! We loved this recipe! We also halved the recipe and used 4 bone in chicken breasts, canned potatoes and portobello mushroom slices (What I had on hand) I forgot to cover it will no ill effects...the chicken was nice and crispy on the outside and moist inside...It was super delicious!
     
  5. Good and different! Half the recipe filled a 9x13 pan. Where to add the potatoes? Didn't see in directions, so mixed them with oil mixture and put them in then. Used Yukon golds as suggested-had trouble getting them to cook (probably not small enough strips). The mushrooms made this dish-and I don't care for mushrooms! Leftover potato/mushroom mixture was AWESOME in an omelet. thanks!
