- 12 oz. red potatoes, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 T. olive oil, divided
- 4 chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
- ¾ tsp. kosher salt, divided
- ½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper, divided
- 1 tsp. Ozark seasoning or similar seasoning blend
- 1 ¾ c. chicken stock
- 5-9 thin lemon slices
- 8 oz. trimmed green beans
Preheat the oven to 450° F.
Place the potatoes in a medium saucepan; cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil and simmer 10 minutes; drain and set aside.
Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 teaspoon of the olive oil to the skillet. Sprinkle the chicken with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add the chicken (skin side down) to the skillet; cook for 5 minutes or until chicken is browned. Turn the chicken over. Place the skillet in the preheated oven; bake at 450° for 40 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet; keep warm.
Return the skillet to medium-high heat on the stovetop. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Add the potatoes; cook for 3 minutes or until browned, stirring once. Add the remaining salt, remaining pepper, Ozark seasoning, and chicken stock to the skillet; simmer for 1 minute. Add the chicken to the skillet; top with the lemon slices and green beans. Return to the oven and cook for an additional 15-25 minutes until the potatoes are fully soft, the chicken is fully cooked, and the green beans are tender.
