Oven-Baked Chicken Thighs with Potatoes

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Preheat & prep:

  • Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).
  • Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels for crispy skin.
  • In a large bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, paprika, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.

2. Season:

  • Add chicken thighs and potatoes to the bowl. Toss everything to coat well in the marinade.
  • If time allows, marinate for 30 minutes to 2 hours in the fridge.

3. Arrange in pan:

  • Place potatoes in a single layer on a large baking tray or roasting dish.
  • Nestle chicken thighs (skin-side up) among the potatoes. Pour over any remaining marinade.
  • Optional: add sliced onions or tomatoes around for extra flavor.

4. Bake:

  • Bake uncovered for 40–45 minutes, or until chicken is golden and cooked through (internal temp: 75°C / 165°F).
  • Broil for the last 2–3 minutes for crispier skin, if desired.

5. Serve:

  • Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and a wedge of lemon if desired. Serve hot.
