Ingredients

  • 2 ½ pounds bone-in, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 ½ pounds baby red potatoes
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes
  • ½ cup pesto
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Step 2
Combine chicken, potatoes, tomatoes, pesto, water, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a large roasting pan; mix well.

Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and juices run clear, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Cook’s Note:

You can use Yukon potatoes instead of red, if you'd like.
