Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 1/2 lb baby potatoes halved
  • 3 medium carrots peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 red onion cut into wedges
  • 4 –6 bone-in skin-on chicken pieces thighs, breasts, and/or drumsticks
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir until fully incorporated.
  • Place the potatoes, carrots, and red onion in a large mixing bowl. Pour half of the olive oil mixture over the vegetables and toss until evenly coated. Transfer the vegetables to a 9×13-inch baking dish or large roasting pan, spreading them into an even layer.
  • Add the chicken pieces to the same mixing bowl. Pour the remaining olive oil mixture over the chicken and turn to coat thoroughly.
  • Arrange the chicken pieces skin-side up on top of the vegetables in the baking dish.
  • Bake uncovered for 50–60 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the vegetables are tender. If desired, stir the vegetables halfway through cooking and spoon the pan juices over the chicken.
  • Remove from the oven and allow the dish to rest briefly before serving.
