Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, combine 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice, 2 tbsp olive oil, 5 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary, 1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme, 1 1/2 tsp salt, and 1 tsp black pepper; whisk until well blended.
  2. Step 2: Add 6 bone-in chicken thighs, 1 lb halved baby potatoes, and 3 medium carrots cut into 1-inch chunks into the marinade. Toss everything together to coat evenly.
  3. Step 3: Arrange the chicken thighs skin-side up on a large rimmed baking sheet along with the potatoes and carrots. Roast for 35-40 minutes until the chicken skin is golden and crispy and the vegetables are tender, turning the vegetables halfway through cooking for even browning.
  4. Step 4: Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute and flavors to meld.
