# How-To Steps:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper.
03 - Add chicken thighs to the bowl and toss to coat evenly. Remove and set aside.
04 - Add radishes, potatoes, and red onion to the remaining marinade and toss well to coat.
05 - Spread vegetables evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Nestle chicken thighs, skin side up, among the vegetables.
06 - Roast for 30-35 minutes until chicken is golden and reaches internal temperature of 165°F, and vegetables are tender.
07 - Remove from oven. Drizzle everything with lemon juice and sprinkle with lemon zest and chopped parsley.
08 - Serve hot, spooning pan juices over the chicken and vegetables.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Everything cooks on one pan so cleanup is practically nonexistent
  • Radishes transform into something surprisingly sweet and mild when roasted
  • The pan juices create an instant sauce that makes everything taste restaurant-quality
02 -
  • Crowding the pan leads to steaming instead of roasting so use two pans if needed
  • The chicken skin releases fat as it roasts which helps cook the vegetables
  • Letting the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving keeps it juicy
03 -
  • Pat the chicken skin dry before marinating for extra crispy skin
  • Arrange the chicken skin side up without touching the vegetables too much
  • Use a meat thermometer to avoid overcooking the chicken
