Honestly, I rarely bake and use lemon infrequently with poultry. This churchmen recipe looks absolutely delicious and I can’t wait to try it. Thank you so much for the easy instructions 👍🏼 Evelyn F

This looks like my kind of dinner meal. I love the combination of flavors for the chicken and the easiness of putting it in the oven in one pan.

I love 1 pan dishes. My pyrex casserole dish gets a workout. It's my go to pan when it comes to one pot dishes. This lemon chicken and potatoes dish looks pretty good.

This sounds awesome!

I love that you can have an entire meal prepped in one pan. The chicken and potatoes are going to be a big hit with my family.

That is such a healthy and delicious looking dish. I love that it is done in the oven, so no frying ; which makes it better for you. I will add this to my recipe card.

I found this recipe last Spring during the "lockdown." I've made some adjustments, but it's become a favorite meal in our house. A lot of other recipes I tried used chicken broth, but this recipe is the best I've found. I use 6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs since it's only 2 of us, but I like leftovers for lunch. I also omit the rosemary (not a fan), use slightly less garlic, 1 tsp. of oregano and salt and 1/2 tsp. of pepper and add extra fresh lemon juice. It comes out amazing every time. My husband who is a picky eater even likes this dish!

That’s so great! I'm so happy to hear your family has a new favorite! - Alena
