Ingredients

• 4 pieces Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
• 1 pound Baby potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Fresh rosemary
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 piece Lemon

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash and dry the baby potatoes. Cut them into halves or quarters if they are larger, ensuring even sizes for cooking.

Step 3

Finely chop the fresh rosemary leaves and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, chopped rosemary, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika.

Step 5

Add the chicken thighs to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly with the mixture. Set aside to marinate while you prepare the potatoes.

Step 6

Toss the washed baby potatoes in the same bowl to coat them with any remaining oil and seasoning. If needed, drizzle an extra tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 7

Place the chicken thighs skin-side up on a large baking sheet or in an oven-safe skillet. Arrange the seasoned potatoes around the chicken.

Step 8

Slice the lemon in half and squeeze the juice over the chicken and potatoes. Place the lemon halves on the sheet or skillet for added aroma during cooking.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the potatoes are crispy and golden brown.

Step 10

Optional: For extra crispy chicken skin, broil on high for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, keeping a close eye to avoid burning.

Step 11

Remove the pan from the oven and let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 12

Serve warm, garnished with an extra sprinkle of fresh rosemary if desired.
