Oven-Roasted Chicken Thighs With Carrots And Yukon Gold Potatoes
Oven-Roasted Chicken Thighs With Carrots And Yukon Gold Potatoes
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 6 large chicken thighs with skin and bones (preferably organic; about 2 1/4 pounds total)
- 1 tablespoon coarse kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons dried thyme
- 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated or ground nutmeg
- 2 pounds unpeeled medium Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed, cut into 2-inch-long, 1/2-inch-thick spears
- 2 pounds medium carrots, peeled, cut into 2-inch-long, 1/2-inch-thick spears
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Coat large rimmed baking sheet with 1 tablespoon oil. Place chicken on baking sheet. Turn to coat with oil and set skin side up. Mix salt, thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper, and nutmeg in small bowl. Sprinkle half of mixture over chicken. Roast until chicken starts to brown and some fat has rendered, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine potatoes, carrots, 2 tablespoons oil, and remaining salt-thyme mixture in large bowl. Transfer thighs to medium bowl; set aside. Transfer potato-carrot mixture to same baking sheet; turn to coat with drippings. Roast until vegetables soften, 30 minutes. Place thighs on vegetables; pour accumulated juices from chicken over. Return sheet to oven. Roast until chicken is cooked and vegetables brown, 15 minutes longer.
- Place chicken on platter; top with chives.
