Ingredients
Chicken
- 1 lb (500g) skinless and boneless chicken thighs
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Potatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
- 8 cloves garlic peeled
- 12 oz (340g) red potatoes cut into wedges
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 dashes Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary roughly chopped, optional
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
Instructions
- Marinate the chicken with the smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, salt and olive oil. Stir to mix well. Set aside.
- Heat up a cast-iron skillet on medium-low heat. Add the olive oil and butter, follow by the garlic, potatoes and the rest of the ingredients. Cook the potatoes wedges until the outside is browned and the inside is cooked through, about 10 - 15 minutes. Dish out and set aside.
- In the same skillet on medium heat, add the olive oil and butter. Pan fry the chicken, each side, for about 4-5 minutes. Turn over and pan fry the other side.
- Push the chicken to one side and add the potatoes. Add more salt to taste. Turn off the heat and serve the chicken and potatoes immediately, with a hot sauce of your choice, if you like.
