Ingredients:
- 1.5 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp cracked black pepper
- 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 2 large carrots, sliced into 1-inch chunks
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp onion powder
- 1 lemon, halved
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a heavy-duty rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Pat the chicken thighs completely dry with paper towels to ensure a crispy skin.
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes and sliced carrots with 1 tbsp olive oil and half of the seasoning blend (salt, pepper, garlic powder, oregano, smoked paprika, and onion powder).
- Rub the remaining olive oil and the rest of the seasoning blend (salt, pepper, garlic powder, oregano, smoked paprika, and onion powder) directly under and over the chicken skin.
- Spread the potatoes and carrots on the parchment-lined pan, leaving space for the chicken.
- Nestle the chicken thighs skin-side up among the vegetables and roast for 20 minutes.
- Open the oven and add the broccoli florets to the open spaces on the pan, tossing them in the rendered chicken fat.
- Roast for an additional 15 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and vegetables are caramelized.
- Squeeze the juice from one lemon half over the pan and garnish with lemon slices before serving.
