Ingredients

  • 4 chicken thighs with bones and skin (about 1 kg)
  • 30 ml olive oil
  • 1 lemon, juice and zest
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 5 g salt
  • 1 g black pepper
  • 1 g dried oregano
  • 450 g baby potatoes, halved
  • 450 g green beans, trimmed
  • 15 g chopped fresh parsley


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
  3. Place chicken thighs in a large bowl and pour half of the olive oil mixture over them, ensuring they are well coated.
  4. Arrange the chicken thighs, skin side up, on one side of a sheet pan.
  5. In the same bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with the remaining olive oil mixture.
  6. Arrange the potatoes on the sheet pan next to the chicken thighs.
  7. Roast in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
  8. Meanwhile, toss the trimmed green beans with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  9. After 25 minutes, add the green beans to the sheet pan around the chicken and potatoes.
  10. Return the sheet pan to the oven and roast for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
  11. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
  12. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Marinate the chicken thighs in the olive oil mixture for a few hours before cooking for enhanced flavor.
  • Arrange the chicken thighs skin side up on the sheet pan to achieve a crispy texture.
  • Personalize the dish by adding your favorite herbs or spices to the olive oil mixture for a unique touch.
