Ingredients

4 pieces bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes cut into chunks
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
to taste salt and pepper

Equipment

Roasting Pan For roasting the chicken and potatoes
Skillet For searing the chicken thighs

Method

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Cut the potatoes into chunks and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange them in a single layer on a roasting pan.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a bit of olive oil. Sear the chicken thighs, skin-side down, for 5-7 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy.
Place the seared chicken thighs on top of the potatoes in the roasting pan. Roast everything in the oven for 35-40 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the potatoes are golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and serve the crispy chicken thighs with roasted potatoes. Enjoy!

Notes

You can add other vegetables like carrots or Brussels sprouts to the roasting pan for added flavor.
If you prefer spicier food, sprinkle some cayenne pepper over the chicken and potatoes before roasting.
For a burst of freshness, squeeze some lemon juice over the chicken before serving.
