  • 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp. dried thyme
  • 1 tsp. dried rosemary

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Small saucepan
  • Large bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
  3. In a large bowl, combine baby potatoes with half of the garlic butter mixture. Toss to coat and spread on a sheet pan.
  4. Nestle the chicken thighs among the potatoes and brush with remaining garlic butter.
  5. Toss assorted vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange them around chicken and potatoes.
  6. Bake for about 40-45 minutes, or until chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) and veggies are tender.
  7. Once out of the oven, squeeze fresh lemon juice over everything.

Notes

Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after removing from the oven for juiciness.
