Equipment
Ingredients
- 8 chicken thighs
- ¾ teaspoon dried thyme
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 ¼ teaspoons kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cloves garlic finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 orange cut in half
- ¾ pound green beans trimmed
- 8 ounce button mushrooms washed and quartered
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Spray or coat a baking sheet with a little olive oil and place the chicken thighs on the sheet. In a small bowl, combine the thyme, red pepper flakes, garlic, ¾ of a teaspoon of the salt and ¼ teaspoon of the black pepper. Brush the chicken with 1 ½ tablespoons of the oil and sprinkle with the garlic spice mixture, rubbing it in a bit. Place the halved orange on the baking sheet, cut side down.
- Roast the chicken until it reaches 165°F about 35-40 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the green beans and mushrooms on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil, salt and pepper and toss to combine. Roast about 15 minutes, stirring once halfway through.
- Divide the chicken and vegetables between plates and squeeze the roasted orange halves over the top.
Notes
You could use a lemon in place of the orange.
If using boneless, skinless chicken breasts - roast them for about 25-30 minutes.
