# The Ingredients You'll Need:

→ Proteins

→ Vegetables

02 - 1 lb radishes, trimmed and halved
03 - 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
04 - 1 medium red onion, cut into wedges

05 - 3 tablespoons olive oil
06 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder

10 - ½ teaspoon black pepper

→ Finish

11 - 1 lemon, zested and juiced
12 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)

# Step-by-Step Instructions:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
03 - Add chicken thighs to the marinade and toss to coat thoroughly. Remove chicken and set aside.
04 - Add radishes, baby potatoes, and red onion to the remaining marinade. Toss until evenly coated.
05 - Spread vegetables evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Nestle chicken thighs skin side up among the vegetables.
06 - Roast for 30 to 35 minutes, until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and vegetables are tender and caramelized.
07 - Remove from oven, drizzle with lemon juice, sprinkle lemon zest and chopped parsley over top.
08 - Serve immediately, spooning pan juices over chicken and vegetables.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • The radishes lose their peppery bite and become surprisingly sweet when roasted
  • Everything cooks on one pan so you can relax while dinner happens
  • The lemon finish makes each bite taste like something from a fancy restaurant
02 -
  • Crowding the pan will steam everything instead of roasting, so use two pans if needed
  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving so the juices redistribute
  • The skin stays crispy only if you pat the chicken dry before adding the oil
03 -
  • Marinate the chicken for up to 4 hours in the refrigerator for deeper flavor
  • Line your baking sheet with foil underneath the parchment to make cleanup even easier
