15 chicken thighs |
8 large potatoes, peeled and quartered |
1 quart vegetable oil for frying |
1/2 cup wine vinegar |

In a large skillet over medium high heat, fry the potatoes in 1/2 inch deep oil until golden brown, then put them in the pan with the chicken. 3. Combine the vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, parsley, onion, salt and pepper with the 1/2 cup reserved frying oil and pour this mixture over the chicken and potatoes. 4.
