Prepare simple, flavorful chicken thighs roasted on a sheet pan with vegetables, seasoned heavily with Old Bay seasoning for a quick weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 pound small potatoes, halved
  • 1 pound broccoli florets
  • 1 large red onion, cut into wedges

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Pat the chicken thighs completely dry using paper towels. This helps achieve crispy skin.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, and black pepper.
  4. Place the chicken thighs in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with half of the Old Bay spice mixture. Rub the seasoning evenly over the chicken, making sure to get some under the skin if possible.
  5. In the same bowl, toss the potatoes, broccoli, and red onion wedges with the remaining half of the Old Bay mixture and a small drizzle of any remaining olive oil.
  6. Arrange the seasoned vegetables on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Place the seasoned chicken thighs skin-side up among the vegetables, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
  7. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius) and the skin is golden brown and crisp.
  8. Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest on the pan for 5 minutes before serving directly from the sheet pan.

Notes

  • For extra crispy skin, you can place the seasoned chicken thighs under the broiler for the last 1 to 2 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
  • If you prefer boneless, skinless thighs, reduce the cooking time by about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • You can substitute the vegetables with carrots, Brussels sprouts, or bell peppers based on what you have available.
