Maple-Roasted Chicken Thighs
Maple-Roasted Chicken Thighs pair juicy, bone-in chicken with caramelized sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts, all roasted together on one pan. A glossy maple-thyme glaze adds a sweet-herb note, while toasted pecans and tart dried cranberries bring crunch and brightness. Ideal for a cozy weeknight dinner with balanced sweet, savory, and nutty flavors.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a 10x15-inch baking sheet with aluminum foil.

In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, 1 teaspoon olive oil, thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until well combined. Set aside.

In a large bowl, toss the sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts, 2 teaspoons olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until evenly coated. Set aside.

Brush the chicken with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil; season with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Arrange the chicken, skin-sides down, in the center of the prepared baking sheet. Spread the sweet potato mixture around the chicken.

Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Flip the chicken; brush the chicken, sweet potatoes, and Brussels sprouts with the maple syrup mixture.

Continue roasting until the sweet potatoes are tender and the chicken is no longer pink in the centers and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near but not touching the bones should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
