Ingredients:
- 680g Boneless Chicken Thighs
- 450g Baby Yukon Gold Potatoes
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 56g Salted Butter
- 6 Cloves Garlic
- 1 tsp Smoked Paprika
- 1 tsp Dried Oregano
- 0.5 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
- 1/4 cup Italian Parsley
- 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
- sea salt
- black pepper
Instructions:
- Pat the 680g of chicken thighs bone dry with paper towels.
- Toss the chicken with sea salt, black pepper, and half of the smoked paprika.
- Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in the skillet over medium high heat. Place chicken in the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes until a deep golden crust forms and the meat releases easily.
- Remove the chicken to a plate. Do not wash the pan; we want those brown bits!
- Add 28g of butter to the skillet. Toss in the 450g of quartered Yukon Golds.
- Cook the potatoes for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally until the edges are translucent and the skins are blistered and brown.
- Push potatoes to the side. Add the remaining 28g of butter, minced garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes.
- Cook for 60 seconds until the garlic smells buttery and toasted, and the paprika turns the butter a deep sunset red.
- Return chicken to the pan. Drizzle with 1 tbsp lemon juice and toss everything together for 2 minutes until the sauce looks glossy and velvety.
- Scatter the 1/4 cup of chopped parsley over the top and serve immediately while the potatoes are still crackling.
