40 mins 5 servings

Ingredients

  • 6 Skin-Ons, Bone-in Chicken Thighs
  • 1 ¼ pounds Broccoli
  • 5 cloves of Garlic
  • 1 ¼ Lemon
  • 1 ¼ cups Parsley (Fresh)
  • ⅞ teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 ¼ teaspoons Dried Oregano
  • 1 ¼ teaspoons Paprika (Smoked)
  • 3 ¾ tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 ½ teaspoons Salt

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment or lightly oil it.
  2. Pat the chicken thighs dry. In a large bowl, toss them with 2 ½ tablespoons olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, oregano, 1 ¼ teaspoons salt, and ⅝ teaspoon pepper until coated.
  3. Arrange the thighs skin-side up on one side of the pan. Scatter lemon slices around and under the chicken.
  4. Toss broccoli florets with the remaining 1 ¼ tablespoons olive oil, ⅝ teaspoon salt, and ⅝ teaspoon pepper. Spread on the open side of the pan in a single layer.
  5. Roast 30–35 minutes, until the chicken skin is browned and the thickest thigh reaches 165°F, and broccoli is tender with browned edges.
  6. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over everything. Rest 5 minutes, garnish with parsley if using, and serve.
