Instructions

  • drizzle about 2 tbsp. of olive oil over the chicken and vegetables
  • bake at 350 on top rack for about 45 minutes ot 1 hour (or until potatoes are tender)
  • crank the heat up to 400 and bake for about 8 more minutes or until the chicken skin is browned and crispy

Notes

  • Chicken Thighs: Buy bone-in skin-on chicken thighs and chicken drumsticks. I used about 4 lbs of chicken in my recipe.
  • Crispy & moist chicken: make sure to bring the chicken to room temperature before cooking and pat the chicken dry before prepping. This will result in crispy skin and moist tender chicken.
  • Potatoes: I used 4 potatoes in this recipe, but use a potato per person you’re serving
  • Spices: This blend of spices is amazingly delicious! My recipe calls for no salt because the seasoing blends I added contain salt.
    • Onion powder
    • Garlic Powder
    • Italian herbs
