Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Pat 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Season both sides with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, combine 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 lb baby carrots, 1 lb Brussels sprouts, 1 medium red onion (cut into wedges), and 3 minced garlic cloves. Toss until evenly coated.
  3. Step 3: Spread the vegetable mixture in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Season with 1 tbsp dried rosemary, 1 tsp dried thyme, and 1/4 tsp salt. Roast in a preheated oven at 425°F for 20 minutes.
  4. Step 4: Remove the baking sheet from the oven, push vegetables to the edges, and place seasoned chicken thighs skin-side up in the center. Return to oven and roast for 25-30 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F and vegetables are tender.
  5. Step 5: Drizzle 1/4 cup chicken broth over the chicken and vegetables, then return to oven for 5 minutes to allow broth to bubble and thicken.
