What Makes This Recipe Healthy?

Chicken thighsare a good source of protein and contain nutrients that can be a healthy addition to your diet. Eating protein-rich foods can support weight-management goals and bone health, among many other potential benefits. Bone-in thighs require more cooking time and chicken skin can contribute a lot of fat and calories to a dish, so we opted for boneless, skinless chicken thighs for this recipe. Boneless, skinlesschicken thighs cook quicklyand lend a lot of flavor with less fat.

We use new potatoes in our recipe, which haveseveral health benefits. Potatoes are a delicious andnutrient-packed vegetable, especially if you eat the skin. Potatoes are high infiberand are an excellent source of vitamin B6, vitamin C andpotassium. Per serving, our dish is low in calories and is a good source of protein, vitamins and minerals.

What’s the Best Temperature for Roasting Chicken Thighs?

We roast the boneless, skinless chicken thighs, potatoes and scallions on a large rimmed baking sheet at 450°F. Roasting at 450°F ensures all the ingredients are cooked through at the same time. It only takes about 18 to 20 minutes in the oven, making this dish a quick and easy weeknight dinner that you’ll want to make again and again.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
