5. Peel and chop 2 lbs of Yukon Gold potatoes into 1-inch pieces. Place the potatoes over the chicken in the baking dish.

12. Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).
13. Remove the foil and bake for 5 more minutes to lightly brown the potatoes.
