Step By Step Instructions

Ingredients
  

Chicken and veggies
  • 2 lb chicken thighs (boneless thighs can also be used; they may cook faster)
  • 1 lb potatoes cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 bell pepper cut into 1½-inch pieces
  • ½ large red onion sliced into wedges
  • 12 oz brussel sprouts halved lengthwise (can sub with zucchini slices but add it during the last 10 minutes of the bake time)
  • 1/3 cup finely grated parmesan cheese, divided
Marinade:
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 lemon juiced (about 3 tablespoons)
  • 4-6 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp tomato paste
  • 2 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
Garnish:
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
  • extra Parmesan cheese

Equipment

  • Large rimmed sheet pan (about 12 x 18 inches) or a 9 x 13-inch baking dish

Method
 

Preheat the Oven
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, thyme, Dijon mustard, tomato paste, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Reserve about ⅓ of the marinade for the vegetables.
Marinate the Chicken
  1. Add the chicken thighs to the bowl with the remaining marinade and toss until well coated.
  2. Let the chicken marinate for 10–15 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.
Season the Vegetables
  1. Add the potatoes, bell pepper, red onion, and Brussels sprouts to a large sheet pan.
  2. Drizzle with the reserved marinade and toss until evenly coated. Spread the vegetables into an even layer.
  3. Optional: If you prefer your vegetables more highly seasoned, sprinkle with an additional ¼–½ teaspoon salt.
Assemble and Bake
  1. Arrange the chicken thighs skin-side up over the vegetables.
  2. Sprinkle with half of the Parmesan cheese and bake for 35–45 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken thighs, until:
    -The chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F
    -The potatoes are fork-tender
    -The vegetables are lightly browned
  3. Boneless chicken thighs may cook more quickly, so begin checking for doneness around 30 minutes.
Broil for Extra Color
  1. For crispier chicken skin and more golden vegetables, switch the oven to broil for 2–3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent the Parmesan from burning.
Finish and Serve
  1. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley before serving.
  2. Serve warm with lemon wedges, crusty bread, or a simple salad.

Notes

  • Cut potatoes evenly: Aim for 1-inch pieces so they cook at the same rate as the chicken.
  • Use a large sheet pan: Overcrowding can cause the vegetables to steam instead of roast.
  • Add zucchini later: If using zucchini instead of Brussels sprouts, stir it in during the last 10 minutes to prevent it from becoming too soft.
  • For extra crispy skin: Pat the chicken dry before marinating and broil at the end.
  • Chicken thighs are forgiving: While chicken is safe at 165°F, thighs become even more tender around 175–185°F.

    My husband said it was one of his favorite meals I’ve ever made!

    He is easy to please, but he does not give out specific complements without meaning them!

    It really is quite easy and hands off after the little bit of prep work. Have made it more than once now and definitely recommend.

  2. 5 stars
    A definite 5 star rating from the Butlers!! I used less potatoes and added green beans. I also took off the skin before cooking and it still turned out delicious! Will definitely be cooking again! Thanks, Lyuda!
