Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
- 3 medium carrots, peeled and cut into sticks
- 2 small zucchini, sliced into half-moons
- 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium red onion, sliced
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary sprigs
- 0.5 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 4 cloves minced garlic
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season both sides with 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and dried thyme.
In a large oven-safe skillet or baking dish, drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Arrange the baby potatoes, carrots, zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion evenly across the bottom.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the vegetables. Sprinkle them with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper. Place the rosemary sprigs on top of the vegetables for extra flavor.
Nestle the seasoned chicken thighs skin-side up among the vegetables.
In a small bowl, combine the chicken broth, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Pour this mixture evenly over the chicken and vegetables.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden and crispy.
For an extra-crispy finish, switch the oven to broil for the last 3-5 minutes, keeping a close eye to avoid burning.
Let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your succulent chicken with flavorful, tender vegetables!
