A flavorful dish featuring crispy chicken thighs, rich garlic butter, and tender potatoes, perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
  • 1.5 lb potatoes (cut into 1-inch pieces)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Black pepper (to taste)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 6 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (freshly grated)
  • Fresh thyme
  • Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Toss the cut potatoes with olive oil, salt, and black pepper, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  3. Pat the chicken thighs dry using paper towels, then season generously with salt and pepper.
  4. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat and mix in the minced garlic, cooking just until fragrant.
  5. Arrange the seasoned chicken thighs and potatoes on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Drizzle half of the garlic butter over the chicken and potatoes, adding fresh thyme as well.
  7. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip the potatoes for even cooking.
  8. Drizzle the remaining garlic butter over everything and roast for an additional 15 to 20 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and is crisp, and the potatoes are fork-tender.
  9. Bake for an extra 5 to 7 minutes after sprinkling the freshly grated Parmesan cheese on top until melted.

Notes

For extra crispy skin, broil the chicken thighs for the last few minutes of cooking. Feel free to use chopped rosemary or Italian seasoning as a substitute for fresh thyme.
