One-pan dinner featuring chicken thighs with roasted radishes, potatoes, and lemon.

# What You'll Need:

→ Proteins

01 - 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs

→ Vegetables

02 - 1 lb radishes, trimmed and halved
03 - 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
04 - 1 medium red onion, cut into wedges

→ Marinade & Seasonings

05 - 3 tbsp olive oil
06 - 1 tsp garlic powder
07 - 1 tsp smoked paprika
08 - 1 tsp dried thyme
09 - 1/2 tsp salt
10 - 1/2 tsp black pepper

→ Finish

11 - 1 lemon, zested and juiced
12 - 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

# Directions:

01 - Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper until well combined.
03 - Add chicken thighs to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the marinade. Remove and set aside.
04 - Add radishes, potatoes, and red onion to the remaining marinade in the bowl. Toss well to coat all vegetables evenly.
05 - Spread vegetables evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Nestle chicken thighs, skin side up, among the vegetables.
06 - Roast for 30 to 35 minutes, or until chicken is golden and cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F, and vegetables are tender.
07 - Remove from oven. Drizzle everything with lemon juice and sprinkle with lemon zest and chopped parsley if desired.
08 - Serve hot, spooning pan juices over the chicken and vegetables.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Everything cooks on one pan, so you can spend zero time scrubbing multiple pots and maximum time actually enjoying your evening
  • The radishes transform into these sweet, buttery bites that even people who swear they hate radishes will happily devour
02 -
  • Crowding the baking sheet is the number one mistake people make, so if your vegetables are overlapping too much, use two pans or work in batches
  • Letting the chicken rest for just 5 minutes after roasting makes a huge difference in juiciness, though I will admit I rarely have the patience
03 -
  • Pat the chicken skin completely dry before marinating if you want it extra crispy
  • Room temperature vegetables roast more evenly, so take them out of the fridge while the oven preheats
