Recipe notes and tips

  • The chicken is done when it reads at least 165 F on an internal meat thermometer.
  • Trim any excess fat off the chicken thighs before marinating.
  • You can marinate the chicken thighs for 30 mins to an hour if you can or you can just give them a quick dip!
  • If you want your jalapenos to have less heat, remove the seeds and ribs.
  • If you want some more spice in this dish, add some chili flakes or a sprinkle of cayenne.
  • You can add a can of crushed tomatoes, to make the dish more saucy if you like!
  • Feel free to mix up the veggies – great for using up what you have in the fridge!
  • Garnish with lemon or lime wedges and some herbs.

FAQ’s

Can I use other vegetables?

By all means, this is a very versatile one pot meal! If you want to use quick roating veggies like asparagus or zucchini add them in the last 20 minutes of baking time. Frozen peas are also good, add them the final 5 minutes of baking.

What can I serve with this Chicken and Potato Bake?

This is a really wholesome and hearty meal, it’s well balanced and super filling on its own, however you can of course serve this with a variety of sides. Here’s some ideas:

  • Wilted Spinach
  • Steamed Broccoli
  • Roasted Garlic Mushrooms
  • Cheesy Garlic Bread
  • Easy Mashed Sweet Potatoes

What should I cook this recipe in?

The best and easiest option is a large, oven safe skillet. You can get everything in there and there’s minimal washing up!

If you don’t have an oven safe skillet, you could use a dutch oven or pan sear your chicken on the stovetop with a regular pan then transfer your ingredients to an oven safe baking dish.
