  • Toss potatoes and scallions with 4 teaspoons oil and 1/4 teaspoon each pepper and salt in a large bowl. Spread evenly on a large rimmed baking sheet. Place chicken on top; drizzle with 2 teaspoons oil and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon each pepper and salt. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165 degrees F and the potatoes are tender, 18 to 20 minutes.

  • Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and 1/4 teaspoon pepper with vinegar, herbs, mustard and shallot in a small bowl. Serve drizzled over the chicken and vegetables.

Super simple and extremely tasty. The herb vinaigrette is totally unnecessary---the flavors from the chicken potatoes and green onions are plenty! The chicken basically bastes the potatoes as it cooks which are in turn delicious. The green onions soften and char and pair wonderfully with the potatoes too. Read More

Very simple and tasty!! I have made this recipe a few times now. It is very easy to follow the recipe and tastes great. I actually like it even better as leftovers as the seasonings have time to really set into the chicken. I have made the herb vinaigrette with a few different types of herbs. My favorite herb seasoning ingredient so far is fresh thyme. I also like to add some extra chopped shallots to the bake for extra flavor. (I also love cooked onions). Enjoy! Read More
