SHEET-PAN CHICKEN WITH POTATOES, SCALLIONS AND CAPERS
This one-pan chicken dinner requires only five ingredients, making it perfect for busy weeknights. Meaty chicken thighs roast on top of scallions and potatoes until the chicken is golden and juicy and the scallions are tender and sweet. Despite the short ingredient list, this dish delivers deep flavor and varying textures: The potatoes on the bottom soak up the tasty pan juices while the ones on top turn crispy. Any extra pan drippings get mixed with capers and lemon juice for a quick, tangy sauce. You could also use some of the sauce to dress a simple side salad.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 450 degrees. Place scallions in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, season potatoes with salt and pepper and toss with 2 tablespoons oil. Spread half of potatoes in a single layer over scallions. Season chicken with salt and pepper, drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and place on top of the potatoes. Arrange remaining potatoes around chicken. Roast until chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender and golden, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Transfer chicken, potatoes and scallions to serving plates. Scrape remaining pan juices and drippings into a small bowl, stir in capers and lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Spoon over chicken and serve with lemon wedges, if using.
LEMONY CHICKEN WITH POTATOES AND OREGANO
This might be the easiest roast chicken and potatoes recipe out there. Roasting lemon slices with the potatoes infuses them with a bright, zippy flavor. Then, you can eat the roasted lemon or not - the caramelized, intense flavor is for true lemon lovers only. Serve this with one or two of your favorite condiments on the side for dipping the potatoes.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees and, if you like, line a sheet pan with parchment paper (not essential but helpful for cleaning up).
- Trim the ends off 1 lemon, then cut the lemon in half crosswise.Thinly slice one half of the lemon into rounds, then cut the rounds into quarters, creating small triangles. Shake out the seeds then place the lemon quarters into a large bowl. Save the remaining lemon half for serving. Cut the remaining whole lemon into wedges, for serving.
- Add chicken and potatoes to the large bowl with the lemon quarters. Add the oregano, salt and pepper; toss well. (Your hands are the best tools here.) Drizzle in the oil and toss again.
- Arrange chicken thighs skin side up on one half of the prepared sheet pan, and potatoes and lemons on the other, spreading the potatoes out into one layer. Roast for 20 minutes. Using a long-handled spoon, stir the potatoes, then spread them out again in one layer. (You don't have to touch the chicken.) Continue roasting until chicken and potatoes are cooked through and everything is golden and crisped, another 15 to 20 minutes (40 to 45 minutes total roasting time).
- To serve, squeeze the juice from the lemon half all over chicken and potatoes and give everything a good stir to incorporate all the tasty juices and browned bits at the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle with more oregano and salt, and serve with additional lemon wedges and condiments on the side.
SEARED CHICKEN BREAST WITH POTATOES AND CAPERS
Pan-seared chicken is a skill with countless rewards. (If this is your first time making chicken this way, you'll understand why fast.) You'll want to start the chicken on the stovetop and finish it in the oven. Then, once it's perfectly cooked, you can pair it with almost anything, whether a simple green salad or a side of smashed potatoes loaded with butter, mustard, capers and chopped lemon, as it is here. The trick is to steam, not boil, the potatoes, which gets them soft and smashable quickly. You need very little water (an inch or so), so there's no waiting around for water to boil, and, best of all, you won't lose any of that rich potato flavor.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 450 degrees with the oven rack in the center. Pat the chicken breasts dry and season generously with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Set aside for the skin to air dry.
- Meanwhile, steam the potatoes in a steamer set over an inch or two of boiling water, covered, until they are just tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat, season well, and set aside, covered, to stay warm and moist.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in your largest skillet over high heat. When the oil is shimmering, lay the chicken breasts skin-side down. Cook without moving until the skin is deeply golden brown and releases easily from the pan, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Carefully flip the breasts and transfer the skillet to the oven (or cook the breasts in batches, if needed, and transfer the four breasts to a baking sheet to finish in the oven). Cook until the juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken registers 165 degrees, about 7 to 12 minutes, depending on the thickness of each breast. Remove the chicken from the oven and transfer to a cutting board to rest.
- While the chicken cooks, transfer the potatoes to a baking sheet and smash them with a baking sheet of equal size, or the back of a clean pot, to burst their skins and reveal some of the tender flesh. Very thinly slice half of the lemon and chop slices into small pieces; juice the other half and whisk together with the Dijon, 1/2 teaspoon salt and melted butter to make a smooth dressing. Drizzle over the potatoes. Scatter the capers, chopped lemon and parsley all over the top.
- Serve the chicken breasts whole, or slice on the bias and serve with the potatoes.

Steps:
- Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel. Press your palm down on a chicken breast and slice the chicken in half with a sharp knife parallel to the cutting board. Repeat with the second chicken breast to make a total of 4 cutlets.
- Heat the oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the capers and fry until golden brown and crispy, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the skillet using a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Reserve the oil in the skillet and remove from the heat.
- Set up a dredging station with 2 shallow bowls or pie plates. Combine the flour with 1/4 cup of the Parmesan, 1 tablespoon kosher salt and the lemon zest in 1 bowl; stir with a fork to combine. Whisk the eggs with 2 tablespoons of the cream in the other bowl.
- Heat the reserved oil in the skillet over medium heat.
- Working in an assembly line, dredge 1 chicken cutlet in the seasoned flour and turn to coat both sides; tap off any excess. Dip the chicken cutlet into the beaten eggs and coat both sides, letting any excess drip off. Carefully lower the cutlet into the skillet. Repeat with the remaining chicken cutlets, frying them in a single layer, until the chicken is opaque and golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and set aside.
- Carefully pour off the oil and discard. Wipe out the skillet with a paper towel. Add the butter and cook over medium heat, swirling the skillet occasionally, until the butter bubbles and begins to brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the wine and the juice of 1/2 the zested lemon, increase the heat to medium-high and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is reduced and thickened, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Add the chicken stock to the skillet and continue to cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is reduced and thickened, about 5 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon cream until emulsified.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary. Return the chicken to the skillet, add the lemon slices and increase the heat to medium. Cook, spooning the sauce over the chicken, until it's warmed through and the lemons have started to soften, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Divide the chicken among plates, top with the lemon slices and spoon the sauce over the top.
- Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup of Parmesan, the parsley and fried capers and enjoy.
CRISPY CHICKEN THIGHS WITH PEPPERS, CAPERS AND OLIVES
The Italian technique employed here - sautéing chicken with a weighted pan on top - is called al mattone. It yields a crisp, burnished skin and very juicy meat. Instead of the usual spatchcocked bird, this recipe calls for large bone-in, skin-on thighs. Cook them in a cast iron pan, if you can, for even heat, but any heavy skillet will do. For a bit of smokiness, the chicken may be cooked (in the cast iron pan) over a charcoal grill. The accompanying sweet pepper stew can be made up to a day in advance and reheated, and starting your seasoning early - an hour ahead or up to 24 - will result in the tastiest chicken.

Steps:
- Start the chicken: Pat chicken dry and place in a large bowl. Season well with salt and pepper. Add garlic, rosemary, red-pepper flakes, lemon zest and juice. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and toss the thighs to coat, using hands to smear the mixture evenly over the chicken. Let marinate for 1 hour at room temperature, or, if time permits, overnight in the refrigerator.
- Make the peppers: Put 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large, wide skillet with a lid over medium-high heat. When oil begins to look wavy, add onions and stir to coat. When the onions begin to soften (don't let them brown), add peppers and stir to combine. Season well with salt and pepper, and add garlic and red-pepper flakes. Stir to incorporate and reduce heat to medium. Cover, leaving the lid ajar.
- Cook mixture for about 15 minutes, stirring frequently, until completely soft. Add olives, vinegar and capers, and cook for a few minutes more, just to meld the flavors. Taste and adjust seasoning. Sprinkle with oregano. Set aside. Serve warm or at room temperature.
- Cook the chicken: Place a large cast iron or heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat. Add remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. When oil is wavy, add chicken thighs, skin-side down. Shake the pan to make sure the chicken isn't sticking.
- Lower the heat to medium. Place a piece of parchment or aluminum foil on top of chicken and set another skillet on top. Add some weight - a brick or canned goods, for example - to the top skillet. Set heat to low and cook for 20 minutes, checking occasionally to be sure chicken isn't sticking, until the skin side is beautifully browned.
- Turn thighs over and cook for 10 minutes more, until thighs are cooked through. (To test, pierce the chicken with a paring knife. The juices should run clear.) If you wish, turn the thighs skin-side down again and let crisp for a few more minutes.
- Serve 1 thigh and a large spoonful of stewed peppers to each guest. Leftover peppers, if any remain, will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
