Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, toss 12 halved baby red potatoes, 2 peeled carrots cut into 1/2-inch sticks, 1 large red bell pepper cut into 1-inch pieces, 1 medium yellow onion cut into wedges, and 4 minced garlic cloves with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper until evenly coated.
  2. Step 2: Spread the vegetable mixture evenly on a large rimmed sheet pan. Place 6 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs on top and rub each with 1 tbsp olive oil and 2 tbsp ranch seasoning mix, ensuring even coverage.
  3. Step 3: Roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes until the chicken skin is golden and crispy and the vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork.
  4. Step 4: Remove from oven and sprinkle 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley over the dish before serving.
