Ingredients

  • 8 chicken legs + thighs skin-on, bone-in
  • 2 large carrots chopped into cubes
  • 3 medium potatoes chopped into cubes (use baby potatoes if you have them)

For the marinade:

  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon Ground black pepper
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 3 large garlic cloves grated
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh herbs + 1 teaspoon for garnish – I used basil thyme and parsley (optionally, use dried herbs)
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F while you prep the ingredients.
  • Rinse and pat dry the chicken pieces.
  • Into a large food-safe zip-lock bag, add the chicken pieces along with the potatoes and carrots.
  • Add all the marinade ingredients to the bag, and seal the bag.
  • Give the bag a few good tosses, until the chicken and vegetables are well coated with the marinade.
  • Transfer all the ingredients from the bag into a sheet pan or an oven-safe tray. Spread out the ingredients so that they bake evenly.
  • Bake at 350 F for 20 minutes until the chicken juices run clear and the skin is browned.
  • Serve with a side of crusty bread or steamed rice.
