Sheet Pan Lemon Rosemary Chicken

SHEET PAN DINNER! Crispy, juicy chicken thighs with tender baby potatoes and crisped kale. So hearty, so good, so easy!

Ingredients
  • 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 ½ pounds pee wee potatoes, about 1/2 inch size
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 lemon, sliced
  • 1 bunch kale, stems removed and leaves torn into bite-sized pieces
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.
  2. Season chicken thighs with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, add chicken, skin-side down, and sear both sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  4. Place chicken in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet.
  5. In a large bowl, combine potatoes, garlic, thyme, rosemary, lemon and 2 tablespoons olive oil; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  6. Place potato mixture in a single layer around the chicken on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Place into oven and bake until the chicken is almost cooked through and the potatoes are almost tender, about 25-30 minutes.
  8. In a large bowl, massage kale with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  9. Remove sheet pan from oven; stir potatoes and add kale. Place into oven and continue to roast for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the kale has crisped. Let stand 5 minutes.
  10. Serve immediately.
