Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Thighs
- 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Potatoes
- 4 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- Salt and pepper to taste
Garnish
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preparing the Chicken Thighs: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel to remove moisture, then season both sides generously with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken thighs skin side down and cook for about 5 minutes until the skin is golden brown and crispy. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side.
- Roasting the Chicken Thighs and Potatoes: Remove chicken thighs from the skillet and set aside. Add the cubed potatoes to the same skillet, season with dried rosemary, salt, and pepper, and toss gently to coat evenly. Place the chicken thighs on top of the potatoes in the skillet. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring the potatoes halfway through, until the chicken is fully cooked and potatoes are tender.
- Serving the Dish: Remove the skillet from the oven and let rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley to add a fresh, colorful touch. Serve hot and enjoy your juicy chicken thighs paired with perfectly roasted potatoes.
Notes
- Use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs for maximum flavor and juiciness.
- Pat chicken dry before seasoning to ensure crispy skin.
- Skin can be removed before cooking for a healthier option.
- For extra crispiness, broil for 2-3 minutes at the end of roasting.
- Customize seasoning with additional herbs or spices like thyme, oregano, or red pepper flakes.
