Ingredients
1/3 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons roughly chopped fresh thyme
1 1/4 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
4 cloves garlic, chopped
Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon, plus 1 lemon cut into wedges
6 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (4 to 4 1/2 pounds)
2 pounds red potatoes (6 medium), cut into 1-inch pieces
1 red onion, sliced
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Whisk the olive oil, salt, thyme, pepper, garlic, lemon zest and lemon juice together in a large bowl.
- Add the chicken, potatoes, red onion and lemon wedges to a sheet pan.
- Pour the olive oil mixture over the sheet pan and toss so that everything is evenly coated. Turn the chicken skin-side up and space the pieces evenly apart.
- Roast on the middle oven rack, rotating the pan halfway through, until the chicken is golden brown and registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer (avoiding bone), 45 to 50 minutes.
- Remove to a platter and sprinkle with the parsley. Drizzle with any juices from the sheet pan and squeeze the roasted lemon wedges over the chicken.
