Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss 1.5 lbs chicken thighs, 2 cups broccoli florets, 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp paprika, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper on a parchment-lined sheet pan until evenly coated.
  2. Step 2: Arrange chicken pieces skin-side up and broccoli in a single layer. Roast for 25 minutes, flipping chicken halfway, until chicken reaches 165°F internal temperature and broccoli edges are crisp.
  3. Step 3: Let rest 5 minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute.
