Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and quartered
- Kosher salt
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- Freshly ground pepper
- 8 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (about 2 1/2 pounds)
- 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 2 cloves garlic, grated
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
- 1 bunch broccolini, trimmed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Put the potatoes in a saucepan and cover with cold water; season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until tender, 15 minutes. Reserve 1/4 cup cooking water, then drain the potatoes; return to the pot. Add the sour cream, butter and reserved cooking water and mash with a masher or fork. Stir in the chives and season with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
- Meanwhile, place the chicken skin-side up on a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Bake 20 minutes; remove from the oven.
- Mix the mustard, lemon juice, garlic, 2 teaspoons olive oil and the thyme; brush on the chicken and push to the sides of the pan. Toss the broccolini with the remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil in the middle of the pan; season with salt and pepper. Bake until the chicken is cooked through and the broccolini is tender, 10 minutes. Serve with the potatoes.

Reviews
First of all I had to give it 5 stars. I am not a cook but even my wife gave me a high five on this dish. I only swapped milk for the potatoes. Thank you for easy recipes and spot on instructions
So simple & delicious except the mashed potatoes needed salt/milk/butter as they were very lackluster.
This is probably my signature dish. My kids love this chicken.
Used breasts and oregano instead of thyme but everyone raved.
Followed the recipe and everything was tasty …. only adjustment I made was removing the skin from the thighs
Super Yummy Meal! Love it!
Delicious , my girlfriend recommend this chicken and now my husband and I make it weekly. so easy to prepare. Also it is great with breasts.
This dish is really delicious! The chicken is super flavorful and moist. The high temp oven creates an amazing crust. This recipe has become a staple in my regular weeknight dinner rotation. I also like how this recipe includes the side dishes to create a well-rounded meal. Highly recommend!
