How are you this fine Tuesday AM..errrrrr PM.....errr is it Tuesday where you are? The whole time thingy gets me all confused. Are you 3 hours ahead, 1 hour behind, am I standing on my head? #blond
Sorry if I seem even weirder than usual today. I woke up at midnight yesterday with a migraine from hell! 
I can't remember the last time I had a migraine that confined me to a room, with the blinds closed, for 24 hours. So today I am up and running and raring to go! I feel like I could cook 4 meals, clean the house, and do the laundry.

However, the only things I have seemed to accomplish is breakfast, watching the first episode of this season of Dancing with the Stars #dontjudge And writing this post.
And writing this post.
But looking at that big ol baking sheet full of tender potatoes, sweet onions, and lemony, herby chicken...Ahhhhh I just want to run, not walk, into the kitchen and whip up another batch of it right now!
I have been working on sheet pan and one-pot meals for you guys. So many of you have asked for easy to make weeknight meals. This one started out as a skillet meal, but required the marinade, then searing the chicken, sauteing the onions and garlic, getting everything back into the skillet, and then into the oven.
After a couple trial runs, I decided that was too much work. We loved the flavor, but hated having so many steps, and more dishes to wash. Soooooo I decided to whip out the ol' sheet pan and give it a whirl.
BINGO, that was the answer. It might take a bit of time, but for the most part it is inactive time. So you can take care of homework, or pay those bills (eeewwww did I say bills ), while your house fills up with the amazing smell of this sheet pan supper cooking.
), while your house fills up with the amazing smell of this sheet pan supper cooking.And when I say amazing, I really mean amazeballs!!
Insanity really.
OK, I am craving it again!
Another plus is, if you have leftovers you can throw together a deeelish lemony chicken salad #drooling
But I seriously doubt you will have leftovers!
OK, back to Dancing with the Stars. Charo just tried to attack the judges! #waycray

Sheet Pan Lemon Chicken
Sheet Pan Lemon Chicken is delicious, and with very few steps, and one pan, it makes the perfect weeknight or Sunday supper meal that your whole family will love
prep time: 1 hour and 15 MINScook time: 45 MINS | total time: 2 hours
ingredients:
- 1/2 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
- 4 lemons, 1 juiced, 3 sliced
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- Kosher salt
- Fresh cracked black pepper
- 8 bone-in, skin on chicken thighs (can remove the skin if wanted)
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 2 pounds baby Yukon gold potatoes, halved (or quartered if larger)
instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic, thyme, rosemary, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
- Place the chicken thighs in a large zipper top bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken, and close the bag. Mix the chicken in the bag to make sure it is all covered with the marinade. Place the bag on the counter, turning occasionally for an hour.
- Drizzle olive oil on a rimmed baking sheet and scatter the potatoes and onions on, sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Using tongs, place the chicken thighs on top and slide the lemon slices in between them. Pour remaining marinade over the chicken.
- Place the sheet pan in the oven and bake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until the internal temp is 165 degrees F.
- If you want the skin darker, place the baking sheet under a broiler for a few minutes, until the skin has crisped up. DO NOT walk away during this process or the chicken might burn.

Easy and delicious! What more can you ask for! Reminds me of a dish my friend Diane Solowiei loved from a now closed restaurant in Flushing, NY off Main Street and a block away from Roosevelt. Brain cloudy...maybe I will remember the name later but I won't forget to make your lovely recipe for the family. Thanks. I subscribed to you today. Looking forward to your recipes.

What vegetable side dish would you recommend with this meal?
Bobbi | Bobbi's Kozy Kitchen
Asparagus or broccoli would be nice, but you could really do whatever your family enjoys 🙂

That looks so good! I wish I'd seen it in time to have some ready to eat now. The flavor combination is enticing, though I'd probably leave the red pepper out of it, since I don't like red pepper.

I hope you do get a chance to make it Barbara!

YUM! We're all about super, super easy around here these days--I can't handle a baby, a preschooler AND really intricate meals the same time! Trying this ASAP. 🙂
