A simple recipe for juicy baked chicken thighs coated in garlic butter and Parmesan cheese, cooked alongside perfectly seasoned roasted potatoes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 1.5 lbs small Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, toss the quartered potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on one half of the prepared baking sheet.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. This is your garlic butter mixture.
  4. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Place the chicken thighs skin-side up on the other half of the baking sheet, leaving space between the chicken and potatoes.
  5. Brush half of the garlic butter mixture evenly over the chicken thighs.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes.
  7. Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Brush the remaining garlic butter mixture over the chicken. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the tops of the chicken thighs.
  8. Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 15 to 20 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius) and the potatoes are tender and browned.
  9. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For crispier potatoes, toss them with 1 tablespoon of cornstarch before adding the oil and seasoning.
  • If you prefer boneless, skinless thighs, reduce the total cooking time by about 10 minutes.
  • You can add other quick-cooking vegetables like broccoli florets during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
