Roasted Radish & Chicken Sheet Pan (Printable View)

Sheet pan dinner with juicy chicken thighs, caramelized potatoes, and roasted radishes finished with lemon.

# Needed Ingredients:

→ Proteins

01 - 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs

→ Vegetables

02 - 1 pound radishes, trimmed and halved
03 - 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
04 - 1 medium red onion, cut into wedges

→ Marinade and Seasonings

05 - 3 tablespoons olive oil
06 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
07 - 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
08 - 1 teaspoon dried thyme
09 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
10 - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

→ Finishing

11 - 1 lemon, zested and juiced
12 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, optional

# Directions:

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 until well combined.
03 - Add chicken thighs to the marinade mixture and toss to coat evenly. Remove and set aside on a clean plate.
04 - Add radishes, potatoes, and red onion to the remaining marinade and toss well to ensure even coating.
05 - Spread coated vegetables evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Nestle chicken thighs skin side up among the vegetables.
06 - Roast for 30 to 35 minutes until chicken is golden and cooked through with an internal temperature of 165°F and vegetables are tender.
07 - Remove from oven and drizzle everything with lemon juice. Sprinkle with lemon zest and chopped parsley if desired. Serve hot, spooning pan juices over chicken and vegetables.

# Expert Hints:

01 -
  • Everything cooks on one pan, which means maximum flavor with practically zero cleanup
  • The radishes transform into something entirely unexpected, sweet and tender like baby potatoes but with a subtle peppery bite
02 -
  • Dont crowd the pan or your vegetables will steam instead of roast, leaving you with soggy radishes instead of caramelized ones
  • Letting the chicken rest for even five minutes before serving makes a huge difference in juiciness
03 -
  • Pat the chicken skin dry before seasoning for extra crispy results
  • Marinate the chicken up to four hours ahead if you have time, though it is still delicious without
