Main Ingredients

  • 4 piece bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 1.5 pound baby potatoes halved if larger than bite-size
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 clove garlic minced
  • 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese freshly grated preferred
  • 0.5 cup plain breadcrumbs panko or regular
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt adjust to taste
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
  • 2 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 425 F (220 C). Line a large baking sheet with foil or parchment and set a rack on top if available for crispier skin.
  • In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, melted butter, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  • Add the chicken thighs and potatoes to the bowl and toss until evenly coated with the garlic-oil mixture.
  • In a small bowl mix grated Parmesan and breadcrumbs. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the tops of the chicken thighs, pressing lightly so it adheres.
  • Arrange the chicken thighs skin-side up on the prepared rack or sheet, placing the potatoes around them in a single layer.
  • Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 F and the potatoes are tender and golden. If needed, broil for 2 to 3 minutes to crisp the topping, watching carefully to avoid burning.
  • Remove from oven and let rest 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the garlic mixture for 1 hour before baking. Leftovers keep well refrigerated for 3 days.
