Preheat your oven to 200°C and grease a large roasting pan with olive oil.
Peel and cut russet potatoes into thick wedges, arranging them evenly across the bottom of the roasting pan.
In a large measuring cup, whisk together extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and chicken broth.
Pour half of this lemon-garlic liquid directly over the potato wedges and toss to coat.
Arrange chicken thighs skin-side up on top of and between the potatoes.
Pour the remaining liquid mixture evenly over the chicken pieces.
Roast uncovered in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes until the chicken skin is crisp and potatoes are fork-tender.
Remove from the oven, rest for 5 minutes, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Cut Uniform Wedges: Keeping potato wedges the same size ensures they soften and caramelize at an equal rate. Don't Skip Broth: The broth and lemon braising liquid keeps potatoes tender on the inside while roasting. Broil at the End: Run the pan under the broiler for 3 minutes before serving if extra crispy chicken skin is desired.
Bone-in thighs work best because rendered fat flavors the potatoes, but breasts can be used if monitored so they don't dry out.
