Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

Generously season chicken thighs on all sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

03

Step
7 mins

Heat olive oil in a large roasting pan set over medium-high heat. Once shimmering, carefully place chicken thighs skin-side down and sear until golden brown and crispy. (5-7 minutes)

04

Step
3 mins

Flip the chicken thighs. Add the Yukon Gold potatoes, lemon slices, and garlic cloves to the pan. Toss everything together ensuring the potatoes and garlic are well-coated in the flavorful olive oil.

05

Step
30 mins

Transfer the roasting pan to the preheated oven and cook until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender and golden brown. (30 minutes)

06

Step
1 mins

Remove from the oven and stir in the freshly chopped parsley just before serving. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

For extra crispy chicken skin, pat the thighs dry with paper towels before seasoning.
Feel free to add other vegetables like carrots, onions, or bell peppers to the roasting pan.
A squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the chicken and potatoes before serving brightens the flavors even more.

    Make sure not to overcrowd the pan; otherwise, the potatoes will steam instead of roast.

    I used red potatoes since that's what I had on hand, and it worked great!
