Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation of Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Place the chicken thighs into the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for better flavor.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures a nice, crisp finish on the chicken and vegetables.

Preparation of Vegetables

  1. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In a separate bowl, combine the sweet potato wedges, sliced red bell pepper, sliced zucchini, and onion wedges. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar, and toss to coat evenly. Set aside.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Arrange and Roast

    In a large roasting pan, arrange the marinated chicken thighs skin-side up. Surround them with the prepared vegetable mixture. Drizzle any remaining marinade over the vegetables.

  2. 5

    Roast in the Oven

    Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven and roast for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the vegetables are tender and caramelized.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Once cooked, remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Watershed Four Peel dish warm!
