  • 6 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 1/2 pounds baby Yukon Gold potatoes, halved
  • 4 carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 zucchini, cut into 1-inch half-moons
  • 1 small red onion, cut into wedges
  • 5 garlic cloves, smashed
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 lemon
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • 2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley

Instructions

  1. Pat chicken dry and season with 1 teaspoon salt and half the pepper; refrigerate uncovered 1 hour if time permits. Heat oven to 450°F with a inside.

  2. Toss potatoes and carrots with 2 tablespoons oil, half the oregano, paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and remaining pepper. Spread cut-side down on the hot pan and roast 15 minutes.

  3. Toss pepper, zucchini, onion, and garlic with 1 tablespoon oil and remaining oregano. Turn the sturdy vegetables, add the new vegetables, and arrange chicken skin-up with space around every piece. Brush chicken with remaining oil.
