Ingredients
  

  • 8 chicken thighs and drumsticks (Bone-in and skin-on)
  • lbs baby potatoes cut in half
  • ¼ cup (59 ml) olive oil
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp rosemary
  • ½ tsp thyme
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic (About 4-5 garlic cloves)
  • Salt and pepper to taste (I use about 2 tsp kosher salt and 1 tsp pepper)
  • Fresh chopped parsley for garnishing (Optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • To make the sauce mix the oil, lemon juice, paprika, onion powder, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Pat dry the chicken and the potatoes with a paper towel and place them evenly on a baking sheet. If not using a non-stick baking sheet you can cover it with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
  • Pour the sauce over the chicken and the potatoes and use your hands to evenly coat them with the sauce.
  • Bake for 55-60 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and the chicken is cooked through. The chicken should register an internal temperature of at least 165°F (74°C). If you notice that the chicken is cooked through but is still a bit pale, you can broil it for 4-5 minutes until golden brown.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving and garnish with chopped parsley.

Notes

  • You can marinate the chicken in the sauce for a few hours before roasting. Try not to marinate for more than 4 hours to avoid the acidity of the sauce from breaking down the meat.
  • Store any leftovers in the refrigerator inside an air-tight container for up to 5 days. 
  • Reheat in the microwave for a few minutes or in the oven at 350°F (180°C) until warm.
