Ingredients

• 4 pieces Chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
• 1 lb Baby potatoes
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
• 3 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 tbsp Fresh rosemary (chopped)
• 1 tsp Paprika
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 1 piece Lemon (sliced into wedges for serving)
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Wash the baby potatoes and cut them in half. If they're small, leave them whole.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, half of the minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and the chopped rosemary. Toss to coat evenly.

Step 4

Place the seasoned potatoes on one side of a large baking sheet, ensuring they are in a single layer for even cooking.

Step 5

Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Season both sides with paprika, the remaining salt (1/2 teaspoon), and black pepper (1/4 teaspoon).

Step 6

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken thighs, skin-side down, for about 3-4 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy.

Step 7

Flip the chicken thighs and sear the other side for 2 minutes. Transfer the seared chicken to the other side of the baking sheet, skin-side up.

Step 8

Sprinkle the remaining minced garlic over the chicken and potatoes.

Step 9

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the potatoes are tender and golden.

Step 10

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes.

Step 11

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
