There is nothing quite like a comforting dinner that cooks entirely in one pan. This recipe is a lifesaver on busy weeknights because it saves you from having to wash a sink full of dishes while still giving you a hearty and healthy meal.

I love how the chicken juices soak into the potatoes and carrots as they roast together in the oven. My best tip is to cut your potatoes into uniform pieces so they all finish cooking at the same time and get nice and golden on the edges.

Ingredients

  • 4 chicken thighs, bone in and skin on
  • 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
  • 3 large carrots, peeled and sliced into rounds
  • 1 yellow onion, cut into thick wedges
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, toss the potatoes, carrots, and onion wedges with olive oil, herbs, salt, and pepper.

  3. 3

    Spread the vegetables out in an even layer on a large rimmed baking sheet.

  4. 4

    Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel and season them with a little extra salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Nestle the chicken pieces among the vegetables on the baking sheet, making sure the skin side faces up.

  6. 6

    Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are fork tender.

  7. 7

    Let the dish rest for five minutes before serving with a sprinkle of fresh parsley.

💡 Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. You can easily reheat this in the oven at 350 degrees until warmed through. Serve this alongside a crisp green salad to round out your meal.
