Ingredients

• 4 pieces chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
• 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 2 cups cherry tomatoes
• 4 cups green cabbage, roughly chopped
• 1.5 cups cannellini beans (cooked or canned, drained and rinsed)
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a large baking dish or roasting pan.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Brush the garlic olive oil mixture over the chicken on all sides and set aside.

Step 4

In the prepared baking dish, layer the chopped cabbage, cherry tomatoes, and cannellini beans. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 5

Place the seasoned chicken thighs on top of the vegetable mixture, skin-side up, ensuring they are spaced evenly apart.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden and crisp.

Step 7

In the final 5 minutes of baking, drizzle the entire dish with the lemon juice for a bright citrus finish.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let the dish rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley or cilantro before serving.

Step 9

Serve hot, plating one chicken thigh with a generous scoop of the roasted vegetables and beans per serving.
