Ingredients

4, skin-on bone-in chicken thighs
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves, minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups, halved brussels sprouts
1 tablespoon butter

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels, then season evenly with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
Step 2: In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons olive oil and 2 minced garlic cloves. Rub this mixture over the chicken thighs to coat completely.
Step 3: Arrange chicken thighs in a single layer in a baking dish, then scatter 2 cups halved brussels sprouts around the chicken.
Step 4: Drizzle the brussels sprouts with any remaining oil and garlic, then top with 1 tablespoon butter.
Step 5: Roast for 30-35 minutes, or until chicken is golden brown and reaches 165°F (74°C) internally, and brussels sprouts are tender and caramelized at the edges.
