Cookware
baking sheet pan · chef's knife · colander · cutting board · garlic press (optional) · hand blender or potato masher · measuring cups · measuring spoons · medium saucepan · mixing bowls · oven mitts · stirring spoon · tongs · vegetable peeler · whisk or fork
Directions
- Wash and dry all fresh produce.
- Whisk together oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl to make the dressing, then set aside.
- Peel and mince the garlic and shallot and add them to the dressing.
- Peel, trim, and halve the cucumber lengthwise, then slice into half-moons; halve the grape tomatoes and add both to the dressing bowl to form the salad.
- Preheat the oven to broil on high with the rack in the upper third.
- Fill a medium saucepan halfway with hot water, add salt, cover, and bring to a boil.
- Chop the potatoes into ½-inch pieces and add them to the boiling water; cook until very tender, about 10 minutes.
- Pat the chicken thighs dry and place on a baking sheet; drizzle with oil and season on both sides, arranging in a single layer.
- Broil the chicken for 5 minutes, then flip, place lemon slices on top of each thigh, and broil until cooked through and golden brown, about 5 more minutes.
- While the chicken cooks, slice the lemon into rounds.
- When the potatoes are tender, drain and return them to the pan; blend with feta, milk, oil, and spices until smooth.
- To serve, divide the chicken, salad, and feta mashed potatoes between plates.
Two tips
- Make the salad components up to a day ahead and toss with the dressing just before serving.
- If you like a lighter finish, drizzle a thin line of olive oil over the plated chicken and potatoes for extra shine.
