Step 2 –In a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add the oil.

Step 3 –Season the chicken leg quarters with the coriander seeds, the kosher salt, and the ground black pepper.

Step 4 –Place the chicken in the oil and cook, in batches, until the skin is golden-brown and crispy on both sides, about 6-8 minutes per batch. Transfer the fried chicken to a plate.

Step 5 –Add the wine to the Dutch oven and cook until it is syrupy, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 6 –Add the chicken stock, the potatoes, and the lemon zest to the wine and stir well, bringing it to a boil.

Step 7 –Return the fried chicken, skin-side up, to the wine mixture, cover, and transfer the Dutch oven to the oven.

Step 8 –Bake the chicken mixture until the potatoes are tender and the chicken leg quarters reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 35-40 minutes.

Step 9 –Carefully add the artichoke hearts and the peas to the chicken mixture and bake, uncovered, until the artichoke hearts and the peas are tender, about 8-10 minutes.

Step 10 –Transfer the chicken and the veggies from the oven and stir in the butter and the mint.

Step 11 –Serve.
