Print Recipe

This comforting, no-fuss chicken and potatoes recipe is a go-to weeknight dinner that’s hearty, flavorful, and easy to prep. Roasted together in one pan, the seasoned chicken turns golden and juicy, while the potatoes get crispy on the outside and tender inside—perfect harmony!

Ingredients

Scale

  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (or drumsticks, or boneless if preferred)

  • 1 ½ lbs baby potatoes (halved) or russet potatoes (cut into chunks)

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon paprika

  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme or rosemary

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • Optional: 2 cloves garlic, minced or whole

  • Fresh parsley or lemon wedges for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. Prep Chicken and Potatoes:
    Pat chicken dry with paper towels for crispy skin. Toss potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, half the garlic powder, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Rub chicken with remaining olive oil and seasonings.

  3. Assemble in Pan:
    Arrange chicken and potatoes on a large baking sheet or oven-safe skillet. Spread evenly—skin side up for chicken.

  4. Bake:
    Roast for 40–45 minutes, until chicken is golden brown and reaches 165°F (74°C) internally, and potatoes are fork-tender and crispy.

  5. Finish and Serve:
    Garnish with fresh parsley or a squeeze of lemon for brightness. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

  • Crispier potatoes: Roast potatoes for 10 minutes alone before adding chicken.

  • Boneless option: If using boneless, skinless chicken, reduce cooking time to 25–30 minutes.

  • Flavor boost: Marinate chicken in olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs 2 hours in advance.
