In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken thighs, 2 teaspoons kosher salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, oregano, red pepper flakes, cayenne, garlic, lemon juice, and 1/4 cup olive oil. Toss very well to mix, ensuring the chicken thighs are fully and evenly coated with the marinade.

Wrap with plastic and marinate in the refrigerator for 6 to 12 hours.

Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil and generously grease it with olive oil.

Meanwhile, cut the potatoes in half lengthwise; slice each half into 3 equal pieces. Dice into cubes and set aside.

Place the chicken thighs smooth-side up on the prepared sheet pan, spacing them evenly. Reserve any leftover marinade in the bowl.

Add the potatoes to the bowl that held the chicken, along with a splash of olive oil and a large pinch of salt. Toss well to coat evenly, then scatter the potatoes over the chicken, distributing them as evenly as possible between the chicken thighs to fill any gaps.

Roast in the center of the preheated oven until the chicken is cooked through, about 35 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate or dish and cover. If desired, cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

While the chicken and potatoes cook, whisk together red wine vinegar, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to make the dressing. Taste and adjust the vinegar or oil as needed. Whisk in the parsley and oregano.

Toss the potatoes in the chicken fat and pan drippings, then return them to the oven until well browned and crusty, 10 to 15 minutes. Let the potatoes rest for a few minutes before lifting them off with a spatula.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
