Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 boneless, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a small bowl, mix together the parmesan cheese, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  2. Place the halved potatoes in a large mixing bowl and toss with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, then spread them evenly on a large baking sheet.
  3. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Rub the remaining olive oil over both sides of the chicken, then press the parmesan-herb mixture firmly onto the skin side of each thigh.
  4. Arrange the chicken thighs on the baking sheet among the potatoes, skin-side up. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the potatoes are tender and golden brown.
  5. For extra crispy skin, you can broil for the last 2-3 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

Choose baby potatoes for even cooking, don't overcrowd the pan for crispiness, and always pat chicken dry before seasoning for better crust adhesion.
