@foodbymaria: ALL THINGS GREEK IS BACK! 🇬🇷✨ Welcome to Episode 1 of All Things Greek, a series where I share the authentic Greek recipes I grew up with. Today we’re making Κοτόπουλο με πατάτες λεμονάτο στο φούρνο, also known as Greek Baked Lemon Chicken and Potatoes. 🍋 Full recipe is linked in my bio! This dish is knock-your-socks-off delicious and unbelievably easy to make. Just add everything to a casserole dish, pop it in the oven, and let it bake. The aroma that fills your home will have everyone asking when dinner is ready. For flavor, I always add @betterthanbouillon chicken base, it’s a staple in my kitchen and something I use in almost every recipe. It adds such a rich depth of flavor. And for the optional mustard twist, I love using @frenchs yellow mustard. It gives the sauce a subtle tang that works beautifully with the lemon. This recipe brings back some of my happiest childhood memories. 
Growing up, our Greek community didn’t gather for church on Sundays because our priest lived in another city. Instead, once a month he would drive three hours to be with us, and we would gather on a random Wednesday evening for service followed by a big communal meal. Every Greek mother brought a homemade dish filled with love and tradition. My mom was incredibly busy raising us, driving us to endless sports practices, and working at our family restaurant — so this was always her go-to meal. Don’t mistake the 10 minutes of prep for laziness or simplicity… this dish is truly remarkable. #GreekRecipes #Greece #GreekFood #GreekLemonChicken
