Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs about 4-5 thighs
  • 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes scrubbed and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper or to taste

Equipment

  • 1 Large Rimmed Baking Sheet
  • 1 Large Mixing Bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large, rimmed baking sheet.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the cubed potatoes, olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried rosemary, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.
  3. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 15 minutes.
  4. While the potatoes are roasting, pat the chicken thighs completely dry with paper towels and season generously on all sides with salt and pepper.
  5. After 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Nestle the chicken thighs among the potatoes, ensuring everything is still in a single layer.
  6. Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F or 74°C) and the potatoes are tender and golden brown.
  7. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

For Crispier Potatoes: Ensure the potatoes are not overcrowded on the pan. Use two pans if necessary.
Add Vegetables: Add heartier vegetables like carrots with the potatoes, or quick-cooking vegetables like broccoli or asparagus in the last 15 minutes of baking.
