Greek Honey Mustard Roast Chicken and Potatoes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup yellow mustard
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 5 arge yellow or gold potatoes, peeled (about 2 1/2 pounds)
  • chicken thighs
  • honey

Instructions

  • Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the orange juice, olive oil, mustard, honey, salt, oregano, and black pepper. Set aside.
  • Cut each peeled potato into randomly-shaped pieces about 1 to 1 1/2 inches in size.
  • Place potatoes in the bowl with orange juice mixture, toss to coat, then scoop into a large roasting pan. Spread out evenly in a single layer.
  • Place chicken thighs in the mixing bowl and coat with remaining orange juice mixture.
  • Transfer to the roasting pan, setting on top of the potatoes. Pour over any remaining juice mixture.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are tender and chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Check halfway through roasting and add hot water to the pan only if the potatoes are drying out; at the end of roasting there should be only juices in the pan, not too much excess water, so add only as needed.
  • Serve with additional honey drizzled over the top of the chicken and potatoes, if desired.
