    Low effort, high reward. So much more delicious than I ecxpected for the simplicity of the recipe. I cut the potatoes a bit smaller and baked at 450 for 45 minutes which was perfect. Removed the chicken and then mixed chopped kale into the delicious pan juices for another five minutes. Excellent and a big hit with the family.

    E and I agreed these are the best potatoes I've ever made. Next time I would start pairs first and then add thighs 10-20 minutes in because they didn't need as long to cook. I used caraway seeds in place of fennel.

    Chicken cook time seems to be too long. I cooked it for 45 minutes which seemed to be more than enough.

    Crispiest chicken skin I've achieved in the oven, the thighs were a little overcooked so I might try for like 50 min next time. The potatoes were very lemony.

    This was tasty and easy. My chicken needed more seasoning but the skin got beautifully crisp. My husband wished the potatoes had gotten more brown and crispy but I get what Ali was going for here.

    This has become a weeknight staple. It comes together quickly and is so good! I would happily serve this to guests because it is so flavorful, and I could do the prep before guests come over, and have time to spend with them while its in the oven. Add a salad and its a perfect gathering meal.
