Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray.
- Combine all the ingredients in the spice blend in a small bowl. Stir until well mixed.
- Rub the spice blend all over the chicken thighs. Arrange the chicken on the sheet pan.
- Place the potatoes in a large bowl with the olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Toss to coat the potatoes.
- Scatter the potatoes around the chicken thighs.
- Bake for 25 minutes. Add the red peppers to the sheet pan.
- Bake for an additional 10 minutes. Add the chorizo to the sheet pan.
- Bake for 10 more minutes or until chicken is cooked through and potatoes and peppers are tender. Sprinkle with parsley, then serve.
Notes
- I use Yukon gold potatoes for this recipe, but you can also use small red potatoes or regular Russet potatoes cut in 1 inch cubes.
- Use Spanish chorizo if you can find it. Spanish chorizo is a hard dried sausage that is found in the deli section of most grocery stores, don't confuse it with the fresh Mexican chorizo!
- I recommend using a meat thermometer to make sure your chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
