Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ lbs baby gold or red potatoes, quartered
- 2 ½ tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 ½ teaspoon sea salt, divided
- 1 ½ teaspoon garlic powder, divided
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon black pepper, divided
- 3 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 4–6 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs, about 1½–2 lbs
- 1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed
- Lemon wedges for serving, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine quartered potatoes with 1½ tablespoons olive oil, ½ teaspoon sea salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and oregano. Toss well and spread the potatoes on one side of the sheet pan. Set the bowl aside for later.
- In a small bowl, mix fresh dill, lemon zest, and remaining salt. Pat chicken thighs dry and rub with ½ tablespoon olive oil, then coat with the lemon zest mixture.
- Arrange the chicken thighs on the other side of the sheet pan. Roast for 20–25 minutes.
- While they cook, add green beans to the used potato bowl with ½ tablespoon olive oil, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, and ½ teaspoon garlic powder. Toss to coat.
- After 20–25 minutes, toss the potatoes and add the green beans to the pan, ensuring space for roasting.
- Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 10 minutes, until chicken reaches 175–185°F and the skin is crispy.
- Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the dish and sprinkle with more dill before serving.
Notes
For extra flavor, consider marinating the chicken thighs with lemon juice and herbs for a few hours ahead of time.
Ensure vegetables are spaced out on the pan; overcrowding can lead to steaming rather than roasting.
You can substitute other seasonal vegetables like carrots or broccoli to add variety.
