Ingredients
4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
12 ounces smoked sausage, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
1 large red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 large yellow bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 medium red onion, cut into 1-inch chunks
2 cups baby potatoes, halved
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Stir to create the seasoning mixture.
Add the chicken thighs to the bowl and rub the seasoning mixture evenly over the chicken pieces.
Place the seasoned chicken thighs on a large rimmed sheet pan, skin side up.
Add the sliced sausage, red bell pepper pieces, yellow bell pepper pieces, red onion chunks, and halved baby potatoes to the bowl with any remaining seasoning mixture and toss to coat evenly.
Arrange the sausage and vegetables around the chicken thighs on the sheet pan in a single layer.
Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and roast for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
If desired, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes to crisp the chicken skin and sausage edges, watching carefully to avoid burning.
Remove the sheet pan from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the chicken, sausage, and vegetables before serving.
