  • 2 cups Russet Potatoes cut into ½ inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil can substitute with avocado oil
For the Glaze

  • 3 cloves Minced Garlic or garlic powder as an alternative
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Rosemary preferably fresh
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Thyme preferably fresh

  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper adjust to taste

Equipment

  • 9x13 baking dish

Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper. Place skin-side up in a greased 9x13 baking dish, spaced evenly.
  3. Cut russet potatoes into ½ inch cubes and arrange around the chicken thighs in the baking dish.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, minced garlic, fresh rosemary, and thyme. Optionally refrigerate for about an hour.
  5. Brush the glaze generously over the chicken thighs and potatoes, ensuring everything is well-coated.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) and potatoes are fork-tender.
  7. If desired, switch to broil for 2-3 minutes for extra crispy skin.
  8. Remove from oven and let the chicken rest for about 10 minutes before serving.
