Ingredients
  

  • 4.0 pieces bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 1.0 pound baby red potatoes
  • 0.375 cups unsalted butter
  • 4.0 cloves garlic
  • 1.0 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1.0 teaspoon paprika
  • 1.0 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1.0 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.125 cups olive oil
  • 0.0 cups fresh parsley, chopped
  • 0.0 pieces lemon wedges

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • In a large bowl, toss the halved baby red potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, paprika, 0.5 teaspoon salt, and 0.25 teaspoon black pepper. Spread them out evenly in a large baking dish or a rimmed sheet pan.
  • Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix the remaining olive oil (1 tablespoon), garlic, thyme, onion powder, remaining salt, and pepper. Rub the marinade all over the chicken thighs, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  • In the same bowl you used for the potatoes, melt the butter (you can do this in the microwave). Pour the melted butter over the seasoned chicken.
  • Nest the seasoned chicken thighs on top of the potatoes in the baking dish, skin side up. Spoon any leftover garlic butter from the bowl over the chicken for extra flavor.
  • Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C) and the skin is crispy. The potatoes should be tender and golden.
  • Once done, remove from the oven and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve with lemon wedges to squeeze over the chicken and potatoes for an extra burst of flavor.
