Herb-Roasted Chicken with Potatoes and Kale Prep:
Keeping all ingredients on a single sheet pan is important in this case because the juice from the chicken and lemon wedges will mingle with the fresh herbs to infuse the potatoes, onion, and kale with incredible flavor while cooking. Make sure to lay ingredients on a Silicone Baking Mat for easy cleanup and non-stick cooking.
*Note: Always cook meat to temperature, not by time. Actual cooking time will vary based on a number of factors, including internal starting temperature, individual oven variations, size and thickness of the meat, what else is in the oven while cooking, etc...
The minimum safe recommended cooking temperature for chicken thighs is 165°F (74°C). For quick and safe monitoring, try an Instant Read Thermometer

One Pan Herb-Roasted Chicken with Potatoes and Kale
Ingredients
- 1½ lbs. red potatoes cleaned and cut in half
- 1 large red onion roughly chopped
- 6-8 whole garlic cloves finely minced
- 3 T. extra virgin olive oil
- 2 T. fresh rosemary minced
- 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

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.

- Add the chicken thighs to the 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 pre-heated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the veggies develop nice color and the chicken is nearly done. Remove baking sheet from the oven and stir in the fresh kale.
