Description
A delicious and flavorful Chinese barbecue eggplant dish that is a must-try for any food lover.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
- 4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into wedges
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 tablespoon ground sumac
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup pine nuts (optional)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, sumac, cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Add the chicken thighs to the bowl, ensuring each piece is generously coated with the marinade. Allow to sit for at least 30 minutes or refrigerate for up to 2 hours.
- On a large baking sheet, arrange the sliced onions and potato wedges in a single layer, drizzling them lightly with olive oil and seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Lay the marinated chicken thighs on top of the vegetables, skin side facing up.
- Transfer the sheet pan to the preheated oven and roast for approximately 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the skin is crispy.
- If using pine nuts, add them to the pan during the last 5 minutes of roasting.
- Once finished, take the pan out of the oven and allow it to rest for about 5 minutes.
- Before serving, sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for garnish.
Notes
- For best flavor, marinate the chicken for longer if possible.
- Adjust the seasoning according to your taste preferences.
- Pine nuts can be omitted if desired.
