One Pan Chicken Potatoes (Printable Version)

Tender chicken thighs and baby potatoes baked with aromatic herbs and a savory gravy.

# Ingredients Required:

→ Poultry

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

→ Vegetables

02 - 454 grams baby potatoes
03 - 1 large yellow onion, sliced
04 - 4 cloves garlic, crushed

→ Liquids & Fats

05 - 480 milliliters chicken broth
06 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
07 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

→ Seasoning & Thickener

08 - 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
09 - 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
10 - 1 teaspoon salt
11 - 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

# Guide to Cooking:

01 - Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with salt and black pepper.
02 - Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Place chicken skin-side down and sear until the skin is golden and crisp, approximately 5 to 6 minutes per side. Remove chicken and set aside.
03 - Add sliced onions and crushed garlic to the same skillet and cook until softened, stirring occasionally and scraping up browned bits from the pan base.
04 - Sprinkle flour evenly over the softened onions and stir to combine. Gradually whisk in chicken broth until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes to thicken.
05 - Return chicken thighs to the skillet and nestle baby potatoes around them. Add unsalted butter and sprinkle fresh thyme over the dish. Transfer the skillet to a preheated oven at 190°C (375°F) and bake for 35 to 40 minutes until chicken is fully cooked and potatoes are tender.
06 - Ladle extra pan gravy over each portion and serve immediately while hot.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 74°C for safe consumption. Using an oven-safe skillet allows seamless transfer from stovetop to oven.
