Gather all the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
- 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the orange juice, olive oil, mustard, honey, salt, oregano, and black pepper together. Set aside.
- 3
Cut each peeled potato into irregular pieces about 1 to 1 1/2 inches in size.
- 4
Add the potatoes to the bowl with the orange juice mixture, toss to coat, then scoop them into a large roasting pan. Spread them out evenly in a single layer.
- 5
Place the chicken thighs in the mixing bowl and coat them with the remaining orange juice mixture.
- 6
Transfer the chicken to the roasting pan, arranging it on top of the potatoes. Pour any remaining juice mixture over the top.
- 7
Bake in the preheated oven until the potatoes are tender and the chicken reaches 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; by the end there should be only juices in the pan, not too much extra water, so add only as needed.

Serve with additional honey drizzled over the chicken and potatoes, if desired.

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.
