Roasted Chicken Thighs Provençal

Dinner  Main Dish  Poultry  Vegetable 

• 3 pounds small red potatoes, quartered
• 4 plum tomatoes, seeded and cut into 6 wedges
• 3 carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
• Cooking spray
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary, divided
• 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme, divided
• 1 teaspoon salt, divided
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
• 6 (6-ounce) skinless chicken thighs
• 24 niçoise olives
• Rosemary sprigs (optional)

Preheat oven to 425°.

Place potatoes, tomatoes, and carrots on a jelly-roll pan coated with cooking spray. Drizzle vegetable mixture with olive oil; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon chopped rosemary, 1 teaspoon thyme, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss gently, and spread into a single layer on pan. Bake at 425° for 30 minutes. Remove vegetable mixture from pan, and keep warm.

Sprinkle chicken with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped rosemary, remaining 1 teaspoon thyme, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add chicken and olives to pan. Bake at 425° for 35 minutes or until chicken is done. Garnish with rosemary sprigs, if desired.

This recipe is from Cooking Light. I made a few minor adjustments. Instead of Thyme, I used Basil. I added a few sliced mushrooms to the chicken when I cooked it. I also ended up cooking the veggies a bit longer in order to get them slightly browned. It is a very tasty dish. I hope you enjoy!
