Ingredients
  

Garlic Butter

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter softened

Cooking Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the butter, garlic, salt, and pepper until well combined. Set aside.
  • Add the potatoes to an 8x8 or 9x9-inch square baking dish and toss with the oil. Season with the salt and pepper.
  • Pierce the chicken thighs a couple of times through the skin. Rub each chicken thigh thoroughly with the prepared garlic butter, placing them on top of the potatoes.
  • Roast until the potatoes are tender and the chicken is cooked through, about 45 minutes, basting the chicken halfway through.
  • Serve the chicken thighs with the potatoes and remaining juices, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
