I’ve made this meal countless times, and it is so satisfying and delicious! The potatoes are roasted so beautifully, and the chicken is so tender! I love this dish!!
Hi Poppy, that’s so awesome! Thank you for the kind feedback!
Another simple and delicious recipe! I used the small gold potatoes (about the size of strawberries) so didn’t even need to cut them up. The chicken thighs were pretty big and ended up needing a little more cook time than written. Served w/ salad & garlic bread. Very easy and a hit with the family. Will definitely make this again! TY
seems like a long oven time at 450!
best chicken dish that I’ve had in a long time.
it’s definitely in my supper rotation.
I am new to cooking for someone else. I eat differently when it’s just me. I made this and I enjoyed it so much that I over-ate! Will definitely make over and over again. My partner also enjoyed it. Thank you.
Great great great!
Absolutely delicious!
Thank you for trying it out! Cheers!
Is there a way to make this as a dish to be made later? For new moms or illness? Should I completely make it (bake completely) and then freeze? Or would you recommend freezing before baking?
Easy and delicious!!
Hi Karen, I’m so glad you loved the dish! thank you!
