# How To Make It:

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

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Everything cooks on one pan, meaning maximum flavor with minimal cleanup
  • Radishes transform completely in the oven, becoming mellow and surprisingly sweet
  • The lemon finish brightens everything and cuts through the rich chicken skin perfectly
02 -
  • Dont crowd the pan too much or vegetables will steam instead of roast
  • Chicken thighs are done when they reach 165°F internally, but trust your eyes too
  • The lemon really is essential and transforms the dish from good to absolutely memorable
03 -
  • Pat the chicken skin dry before marinating for the crispiest results
  • Let the sheet pan rest for 5 minutes before serving so juices redistribute
