Serves: 2
 
Ingredients
  • 2 lb bone in skin on chicken pieces
  • 1 lb fingerling potatoes
  • 3 sprigs Rosemary, leaves stripped and minced
  • 3 sprigs thyme, leaves stripped and minced
  • 1 handful parsley, leaves stripped and minced
  • 1 lemon
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375.
  2. Liberally salt and pepper the chicken. Add olive oil to a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Deeply sear chicken on all sides, 3-5 minutes per side. Remove chicken and set aside.
  3. Over medium heat, sauté fingerling potatoes in the chicken drippings. Liberally salt and pepper, add rosemary, thyme and half the parsley, and sauté until evenly browned, 5-7 minutes.
  4. Move all potatoes to one side of pan and add the chicken back to the pan (it's okay if it overlaps, it's already browned). Squeeze juice of one lemon over the chicken, and add half the lemon cut side down to the pan to roast (optional). Put pan in oven and roast until an internal thermometer in the chicken reaches 165, 30-45 minutes.
  5. Remove the chicken and top with remaining parsley, and more juice from roasted lemon. Allow chicken to rest before serving.
