Rub the chicken thighs with salt and black pepper, and cut the potatoes into large wedges.
Brown the potatoes in a pan with half the olive oil for 8 minutes, then transfer to a plate.
In the same pan, sear the chicken skin-side down for 9 minutes.
Add the garlic and oregano, pour in the white wine, and boil for 3 minutes until the alcohol smell fades.
Add the chicken stock and potatoes to the pan.
Transfer the pan to a 190°C oven and bake for 28 minutes until the chicken is cooked and the potatoes are tender.
Add the peas and lemon juice, bake for 4 more minutes, and serve.
💡 Tip: Brown the potatoes in the same pan as the chicken; separately boiled potatoes do not absorb the sauce well.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve Chicken Vesuvio as a generous dinner plate with peas, lemon, and optional arugula salad.
