Ingredients
  

  • 4-6 Chicken Thighs bone-in, skin-on
  • 1.5 pounds Potatoes baby potatoes or Yukon gold, halved
  • 6 cloves Garlic minced
  • 0.5 cup Parmesan Cheese freshly grated
  • 2 tbsp Butter melted
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Italian Seasoning
  • 0.5 tsp Paprika
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Parsley chopped

Equipment

  • Sheet pan
  • Mixing bowl
  • oven

Method
 

Preheat and Prep
  1. Set your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
The Garlic Butter Bath
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, olive oil, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and paprika.
Season the Veggies
  1. Toss the halved potatoes on the sheet pan with half of the garlic butter mixture and a generous pinch of salt. Spread them out to the edges.
Nestle the Chicken
  1. Place the chicken thighs in the center of the pan. Brush the remaining garlic butter over the chicken, making sure to get under the skin if possible.
The First Roast
  1. Slide the pan into the oven for 25 minutes.
The Parmesan Crust
  1. Remove the pan and sprinkle the parmesan cheese generously over both the chicken and the potatoes. Return to the oven for another 10 to 15 minutes.
Broil for Perfection
  1. If the skin isn't as golden as you like, turn on the broil setting for 2 minutes. Watch it closely.
Rest and Garnish
  1. Let the meat rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve.
