Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare all vegetables: halve the baby potatoes, chop the carrots, cut the broccoli into florets, and dice the red bell pepper.
In a large bowl, combine the chicken thighs and all the chopped vegetables.
Drizzle with olive oil and add minced garlic, Italian herbs, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss everything until well coated.
Spread the chicken and vegetable mixture evenly onto a large roasting pan or baking sheet. Place chicken thighs skin-side up, ensuring there is space between the pieces.
Roast uncovered for about 45 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temp 165°F) and the vegetables are tender and lightly caramelized.
Optional: For extra crispy skin, broil for the last 2–3 minutes.
Serve directly from the pan, optionally squeezing fresh lemon juice over the dish for added brightness. Enjoy!

Notes

For a more even cook, try to cut the vegetables into similar-sized pieces.
If using boneless, skinless chicken thighs, reduce cooking time slightly (about 35 minutes).
Fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme can be added for an extra flavor boost.
Feel free to switch out vegetables based on what’s in season or your preferences!
