    The chicken comes out perfectly! I follow this recipe exactly and it comes out perfect every time. It's very easy - not much work at all, but it takes some time. It definitely reminds me of eating at Greek friend's homes, especially the potatoes. Thanks for the recipe!

    Kittencal’s Greek Roasted Lemon-Garlic Chicken With Potatoes, If you are a lover of Greek food then you will love this chicken, this is not by any means for those who have plain palette, this is a full flavored dish! — this will fit into a 13 x 9-inch baking pan if you reduce the amount of potatoes otherwise you will need to use a slightly larger size pan, for this the chicken is cut in half do not cut into pieces, remember to check the broth in the pan frequently as it tends to cook down adding in more if needed, you may or may not need to add in more — serve this with a crusty loaf of bread to dip into the pan juices, The chicken comes out perfectly! I follow this recipe exactly and it comes out perfect every time It’s very easy – not much work at all, but it takes some time It definitely reminds me of eating at Greek friend’s homes, especially the potatoes Thanks for the recipe!
