Description
This insanely good one-pan herb chicken and roasted veggie bake delivers golden, crispy chicken thighs nestled over caramelized seasonal vegetables. The herbs, garlic, and olive oil create an irresistible flavor while everything roasts on one pan—easy cleanup, perfect for busy nights or meal prepping.
Ingredients
6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
2 cups potatoes, chopped
1 ½ cups carrots, sliced
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
1 ½ cups zucchini, chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a large baking sheet with foil or parchment paper if desired.
2. Cut all vegetables into similar-sized chunks for even roasting.
3. In a bowl, rub chicken thighs with 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil, garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper until well coated.
4. In another bowl, toss vegetables with remaining olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
5. Spread vegetables evenly across the prepared baking sheet. Place the seasoned chicken thighs on top, skin-side up.
6. Roast for 40–45 minutes, until the chicken skin is golden and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Vegetables should be tender and slightly caramelized.
7. Remove from oven, garnish with more fresh herbs, and let rest 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
For crispier skin, broil the pan for the last 2-3 minutes while watching closely.
Swap chicken thighs for boneless breasts, but reduce cook time to 25–30 minutes.
Avoid overcrowding the pan—use two sheets if needed for proper roasting.
