Chef's Note

For the juiciest chicken thighs, let them come to room temperature for 15-20 minutes before roasting. Also, don't skip patting them dry - this ensures crispy skin. The vegetables on the bottom will absorb all the delicious chicken drippings, creating an incredibly flavorful side.

Ingredients
  • 4 pieces bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary

  • 4 sprigs fresh thyme

  • 4 cloves garlic

  • 1 whole lemon

  • 8 ounces baby potatoes

  • 2 medium carrots

  • 1 medium zucchini

  • 1 medium red bell pepper

  • 1 small red onion

  • 1 tablespoon dijon mustard

  • 1 teaspoon honey

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

  • 1/4 cup white wine

  • 1/4 cup chicken broth

Instructions
  • 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).

  • 2

    Pat the 4 chicken thighs dry with paper towels and place in a medium bowl.

  • 3

    In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon honey, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano.

  • 4

    Pour the marinade over the chicken thighs and toss to coat evenly. Let marinate while preparing the vegetables.

  • 5

    Cut the baby potatoes in half, peel and slice the 2 carrots into 1/2-inch pieces, cut the zucchini into 1-inch chunks, dice the red bell pepper into 1-inch pieces, and slice the red onion into wedges.

  • 6

    Mince 2 cloves of garlic and strip the leaves from 1 sprig of rosemary and 2 sprigs of thyme, finely chopping them.

  • 7

    In a large bowl, toss the prepared vegetables with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, minced garlic, chopped herbs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.

  • 8

    Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet.

  • 9

    Slice half of the lemon into thin rounds and squeeze the juice from the other half.

  • 10

    Place the marinated chicken thighs on top of the vegetables, skin side up. Tuck the lemon slices, 2 whole garlic cloves, 1 sprig of rosemary, and 2 sprigs of thyme around the chicken and vegetables.

  • 11

    Combine 1/4 cup white wine and 1/4 cup chicken broth, then pour around (not over) the chicken to keep the skin crispy.

  • 12

    Roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden and crispy.

  • 13

    If needed, broil for the last 2-3 minutes to get extra crispy skin.

  • 14

    Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

  • 15

    Drizzle with the pan juices and serve the chicken thighs with the roasted vegetables.
