Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Place the chicken thighs in a large mixing bowl.
- Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, thyme, paprika, salt, pepper, onion powder, and red pepper flakes to the chicken.
- Toss thoroughly until every piece is evenly coated with seasoning.
- In a separate bowl, combine the zucchini with the remaining olive oil and a light sprinkle of salt and pepper.
- Arrange the seasoned chicken on one side of the prepared sheet pan.
- Spread the zucchini in a single layer around the chicken, avoiding overcrowding.
- Roast for 18 minutes until the chicken begins to brown and the zucchini softens.
- Carefully toss the zucchini for even caramelization.
- Continue roasting for 8–12 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Switch to broil for 2–3 minutes if you want extra browning on the chicken.
- Remove the pan from the oven and allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle fresh parsley over the entire pan before serving.
- Serve immediately while hot and fragrant.
