Ingredients

  • 700 g/1½ lbs red potatoes cleaned and halved
  • 1 large red onion roughly chopped
  • 6-8 garlic cloves finely chopped
  • 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp finely chopped fresh rosemary
  • Sea salt and black pepper to taste
  • 6 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs
  • 10-12 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 1 large lemon cut into 8 wedges
  • 250 g/2 cups fresh kale washed, tough stems removed, and thinly sliced

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6 and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or a Silpat® baking mat. Set aside.
  • Place potatoes, red onions, garlic, olive oil, and fresh rosemary in a large mixing bowl and season to taste with salt and black pepper. Toss everything together and then arrange on sheet pan in a single layer.
  • Place the chicken thighs into the same mixing bowl and coat with any remaining rosemary and olive oil mixture. Season the chicken with additional salt and black pepper, if desired, and nestle in between the veggies along with the lemon wedges and sprigs of fresh thyme.
  • Roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the veggies develop nice color and the chicken is nearly done.
  • Remove pan from the oven and stir in the fresh kale.
  • Return the sheet pan to the oven and roast for another 10 minutes, or until the kale is wilted and the chicken is completely cooked and juices run clear. Check internal temperature of chicken with meat thermometer. The minimum safe recommended cooking temperature for chicken thighs is 74C/165F.
  • Remove from oven and transfer chicken and potatoes to a serving platter and loosely cover
    with foil. Let chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
