Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, whisk together 4 tbsp olive oil, 3 tbsp lemon juice, 5 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary, 2 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, and 1 tsp lemon zest.
- Step 2: Add 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and 1.5 lbs halved baby Yukon gold potatoes to the bowl. Toss well to coat evenly with the lemon-garlic mixture.
- Step 3: Arrange the chicken thighs skin-side up on a large rimmed baking sheet, placing the potatoes around them in a single layer.
- Step 4: Roast for 35-40 minutes until the chicken skin is golden and crispy and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Step 5: For extra crispiness, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
- Step 6: Remove from oven, let rest for 5 minutes, then serve the chicken with the flavorful roasted potatoes alongside.
