LG Change Your Life Chicken

 This recipe is as amazing as the title implies!  One pan.  Whole family enjoyed.  Quick prep.  Classic.  Thanks Lazy Genius for sharing this one pan yumminess with us!


- chicken thighs, bone in and skin on, one per person or to family preferences
- olive oil 
- salt and pepper
- (Lazy Genius says two handfuls of vegetables per person; below is what I do most often)
- One onion, large chunks
- potatoes, cut in chunks
- carrots, round slices
- green beans

Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper.  Lift up skin to sprinkle under skin with salt and pepper.  Prepare chicken this way one hour to one day early.  I even buy double thighs that I need, preparing one batch for supper that day and the rest prepped and in the freezer for a later day. 

Preheat oven to 500.  

Line large baking tray with foil.  Spray with olive oil spray to prevent sticking.  (LG says toss with oil, but I find that unnecessary if you use one pan.  If you separate chicken on its own pan, the vegetables lightly tossed in oil would be great!)

Arrange vegetables on pan.  Salt and pepper the vegetables.  Place chicken skin side up on top of the vegetables.  Bake at 500 degrees for 50 min.  (My oven runs hot, so I bake at 450 degrees.)

The chicken will be amazingly moist!  The veggies will be browned so lovely and flavorful!  The Lazy Genius has a great description about why she does it all this way.  Read her words of wisdom or just try it; you won’t be sorry!
