A delicious, one-pan chicken potato bake featuring juicy chicken thighs, crispy Yukon Gold potatoes, and fresh aromatic herbs.
Ingredients
2 lbs chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
1.5 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, cubed
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, chopped
4 sprigs fresh thyme
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a large rimmed baking sheet or roasting pan.
Step 2: In a large bowl, toss the cubed potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, half the minced garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper.

Step 7: Remove from the oven and let the chicken potato bake rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
For the best results, use bone-in thighs to ensure the chicken potato bake stays moist during the high-heat roasting process.
