    Method

    1. 1

      Heat the oven to 220°C (425°F). Cut the potatoes into 1 cm (1/2 in) wedges. Blot the chicken dry and season it with half the salt and oregano.

    2. 2

      Warm the oil in a large ovenproof skillet and brown the chicken on both sides, then set it on a clean plate. Put the potatoes in the pan with the rest of the salt and oregano and cook until their cut sides begin to turn golden.

    3. 3

      Stir in the sliced garlic for 30 seconds, then add the wine and stock and scrape up the browned bits from the bottom. Return the chicken to the pan.

    4. 4

      Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and the chicken reaches 74°C (165°F).

    5. 5

      Stir the peas into the hot pan juices for the final 3 minutes. Squeeze the lemon over everything before serving.
