Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Toss halved baby potatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil, half the lemon zest, half the garlic, salt, and pepper. Spread on one side of a large baking sheet.
In a bowl, mix remaining olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Add chicken thighs, toss to coat.
Arrange chicken thighs on the other side of the baking sheet. Roast everything for 25-30 minutes, flipping potatoes halfway, until chicken is cooked through (165°F internal) and potatoes are golden and crispy.
Transfer chicken and potatoes to plates. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
