  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt to taste Salt
  • Black pepper to taste Black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 6 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (freshly grated) Substitute with any freshly grated cheese if needed.

  • Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the cut potatoes with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels, then season generously with salt and pepper.
  4. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and mix in the minced garlic, cooking just until fragrant.
Cooking

  2. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip the potatoes for even cooking.
  3. Drizzle the remaining garlic butter over everything and roast for an additional 15 to 20 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and is crisp, and the potatoes are fork-tender.

Notes

Use a digital meat thermometer to check the chicken’s internal temperature. Let the chicken thighs rest for a few minutes after roasting for juicier meat. You can swap the Parmesan cheese for a blend of Italian cheeses or add crushed red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
