Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
- 1 pound baby potatoes
- 4 large carrots
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 small lemon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.
Rinse and pat dry the chicken thighs with paper towels. Set them aside.
Wash the baby potatoes and slice them in half. If they are larger, quarter them so they cook evenly.
Peel the carrots and cut them into sticks, approximately 3 inches long.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken thighs, potatoes, carrots, and broccoli florets.
Drizzle the olive oil over the mixture and sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Toss everything together until the chicken and vegetables are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning.
Spread the chicken and vegetables in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan, ensuring there is space between the chicken thighs for even cooking.
Cut the lemon in half. Squeeze the juice of one half over the chicken and vegetables, and slice the other half into thin wedges to place on the pan for added flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the vegetables are tender and caramelized.
Optional: For crispy skin on the chicken, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes at the end of cooking.
Remove the sheet pan from the oven and let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy!
