Ingredients:

Serving

2 -3 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground black pepper
1/3 cup olive oil
2 cups canola oil, for frying
3 large idaho potatoes, peeled and cut into thick wedges
2 garlic cloves, peeled and mashed
1 tbsp dried oregano
1/2 cup white wine
2 tbsp fresh parsley leaves, chopped

Directions:

Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
Clean chicken, rinse with cold water and pat dry. Season with salt and pepper. Heat 1/3-cup olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, carefully place chicken in pan using tongs. Brown well on all sides, remove chicken from pan. Pour off all but a few tablespoons of oil. Return chicken to skillet and place uncovered in preheated oven for 25 minutes, turning chicken once or twice.
Heat 2 cups of canola oil to 350 degrees F.
While chicken is cooking have potatoes peeled, wedged, rinsed and dry. Carefully add wedges into hot oil, about 4 at a time. Avoid crowding. Fry potatoes until golden and remove and let drain on paper towel and reserve for later.
For the last 5 minutes of cooking for the chicken, add the cooked potatoes, garlic, oregano and wine to skillet, return to oven.
Remove skillet from oven to stove top after the 5 minutes, add parsley and gently turn with a spoon.
Remove chicken to a large platter, arrange potatoes atop the chicken and pour the pan juices over all.
