Lemon Garlic Dutch Oven Chicken and Vegetables
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
- 2 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
- 1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into chunks
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 lemon, sliced
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup lemon juice, minced garlic, lemon zest, oregano, thyme, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
- Place the chicken thighs in a large resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the chicken. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Arrange the halved baby potatoes, carrots, red bell pepper, and red onion in the bottom of a Dutch oven. Place the marinated chicken thighs on top of the vegetables. Pour any remaining marinade over the chicken and vegetables. Place lemon slices on top of the chicken.
- Cover the Dutch oven with a lid and bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
- Remove the lid and broil for an additional 5-7 minutes to brown the chicken and vegetables slightly.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot. Enjoy!
