Name: Herb-Roasted Chicken Thighs with Lemon-Garlic Roasted Vegetables (Gluten-Free)
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 45 minutes
Total time: 60 minutes
Yield: 4 porciones
Ingredients: 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 3–3.5 lb / 1.4–1.6 kg); 2 tbsp olive oil (plus 1 tbsp for vegetables); 1 tsp kosher salt (adjust to taste); 0.5 tsp black pepper; 1 tsp smoked paprika (or sweet paprika); 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1 tsp dried); 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves (or 1 tsp dried); 4 cloves garlic, minced; Zest and juice of 1 lemon; 1.5 lb (700 g) mixed vegetables — e.g., baby potatoes (halved), carrots (cut into sticks), and Brussels sprouts (halved); 1 large onion, cut into wedges; 2 tbsp melted butter or additional olive oil (for veggies; use dairy-free butter if preferred); 1 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for a touch of caramelization); Fresh parsley, chopped, for finishing

1

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with foil or parchment for easy cleanup — I always do this, saves time and my back.

2

Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels (this helps the skin crisp). In a bowl, mix 2 tbsp olive oil, minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, pepper, paprika, rosemary, and thyme. Rub this mixture all over the thighs and under the skin where you can — a little secret that makes every bite flavorful.

3

Toss the prepared vegetables and onion with 1 tbsp olive oil (or melted butter), honey/maple syrup if using, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread them in an even layer on the baking sheet, leaving a bit of room for the chicken.

4

Nestle the chicken thighs skin-side up among the vegetables so juices mingle while roasting. Roast in the preheated oven for 35–45 minutes, until the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) at the thickest part and the skin is golden and crisp. Stir the vegetables once halfway through for even browning.

5

If you'd like extra-crispy skin, switch the oven to broil for 2–3 minutes at the end — watch closely, dear, it goes from lovely to burnt fast.

6

Remove from oven and let the chicken rest 5 minutes. Scatter chopped parsley over everything and spoon any pan juices over the chicken before serving.

7

Serve warm with a simple green salad or steamed greens if you like — this pairs beautifully with a wedge of lemon for extra brightness.
