Ingredients

Scale
  • 46 bone-in chicken thighs (skin-on)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 lemons (juice and zest)
  • 4 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes (halved)
  • 2 tbsp fresh rosemary (chopped)
  • 2 tbsp fresh thyme (chopped)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly spray a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Prepare the Chicken: Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
  3. Mix the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, olive oil, chopped rosemary, and thyme.
  4. Coat the Ingredients: Place seasoned chicken in the baking dish along with halved baby potatoes. Pour marinade over everything, ensuring even coating.
  5. Roast Away: Roast in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of at least 165°F (74°C) and potatoes are tender.
  6. Serve It Up: Let rest for a few minutes before serving. Drizzle any remaining pan juices over the dish for extra flavor.
